Answer:

d. Native Americans were forced to leave their lands on the Trail of Tears

Reasoning:

Manifest destiny was a motivation for Americans to expand through the west on the premise that it was they "God Given Right." This caused them to push out Native Americans from their homes in order to take the land themselves.
