Answer:

B) Settlers engaged in seizing lands that traditionally belongs to the Native Americans.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the other situations happened in a handful of cases, the most common behaviour of settlers was seizing lands that traditionally belonged to the Native Americans. This had extremely negative consequences for their traditional communities. Native Americans were displaced and their culture fragmented as their territory was lost.
