Final answer:

The French Creole population in Louisiana adapted to the new administration without significant resistance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The French Creole population in Louisiana responded to the transfer of Louisiana to Spanish control by c. Adapted to the new administration without significant resistance.

During the period of Spanish occupation, the French Creoles adjusted to the new administration and the Spanish influence on the local culture, as seen in the Spanish architectural styles in New Orleans' French Quarter. Despite previous desires for independence and participation in politics, the French Creoles did not fight against the Spanish or move to other French colonies in protest.
