Answer 1

Correct answer is Antonio de Mendoza.

Step-by-step explanation:

Antonio de Mendoza is the correct answer, because he was the Viceroy of New Spain between 1535 and 1550 who commissioned this famous expedition led by Coronado.

Second option is not correct as there is no such historical figure connected with this event.

Coronado is not correct answer as he was the leader of this mission, but he was not a viceroy.

Panfilo de Narvaez was also a conquistador like Coronado, but he died years before this mission.
