Juan Ponce de Leon explore present-day Florida so as to find the fountain of youth and is therefore denoted as option D.

<h3>What is Exploration?</h3>

This refers to an act which involves the searching of areas with the sole intention of discovering information or resources for personal or commercial reasons.

Juan Ponce de León was a Spanish explorer who led the first official expedition to Florida. He traveled to Bimini Island which was very close to the United States when he heard that there was a rumored fountain of youth in the area.

His main purpose of going to the area was because the fountain of youth was a fabled water source which was said to bring eternal youth to people which wasn't the case and made him return back. This is therefore the reason why option D was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
