Answer:The Matamoros Expedition have fate as Mexican troops defeated the Texan force attempting to capture the port.

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Matamoros Expedition was an invasion by rebellious Texans in the year 1836 for capturing the port town of Matamoros which was under the control of Mexicans. The Matamoros port had great strategic as well as economic value to both Mexico as well as Texas.

The Texan revolution was quite controversial as there was the division between the Governor and the General Council on the issue that whether they should remain faithful to the constitution or declare their freedom from the Mexico. This division has great impact on the revolution as ultimately the expedition led to the defeat of Texan force in 1836.
