Answer: B) missions

Step-by-step explanation:

The places known as missions were built in America by the Southwest region. They were settlements run by Catholic priests and friars with the goal to convert natives into Christianity. Mainly the missions were run by Spanish Catholic Dominicans, Jesuits, and Franciscans.
