Answer:

c. To practice their religion freely.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Puritans were immigrants from England who were opposed to the Catholic Church of England and its laws and regulations. Because of their dissent against the Catholic ruling, these Protestants came to America to be free from the constraints under the Church of England.

These Puritans were mostly Protestants who were unable to practice their religion freely. With their new settlement at the New England colonies, they were able to freely enjoy the Protestant religion.

Thus, the correct answer is option c.
