Answer 1

The Puritans left England and sailed to America in search of religious freedom.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is:

1. They left England and sailed to America. The Puritans were a group of religious reformers in England who sought to purify the Church of England from within. Due to religious persecution and a desire for religious freedom, many Puritans left England and sailed to America, where they established colonies such as the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
2. They became a large part of the English population. Although the Puritans were a significant group, it is more accurate to say that they were a minority within the larger English population.
3. They converted to Catholicism. The Puritans were Protestant reformers who sought to distance themselves from the practices and beliefs of the Catholic Church.
4. They left England and sailed to South Africa.
