Answer 1

The correct answer is option d. "leaders of the Mexican independence movement who were executed by Spanish leaders".

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, known as Father of the Nation, was a Spanish Roman Catholic priest that initiated the Mexican independence movement. Jose María Morelos was a Mexican Roman Catholic priest and revolutionary leader of the independence movement as well. Both were taken as prisoners and were executed by Spanish leaders. Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla was captured and executed by Francisco Gabriel de Olivares, while Morelos was executed on December 22, 1815, in San Cristóbal Ecatepec.
