Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A and B are definitely incorrect as the Battle of the Alamo didn't persuade Texans to give up. The Texans lost so the battle didn't prove anything about that either. C is also incorrect because later on the Texans did dfeat Santa Anna. The only reasonable answer is D.
