Answer:

Which of the following developments can be most directly attributed to Portuguese and Spanish state sponsorship of maritime exploration in the late fifteenth century? 1.) improvemets in European geographic knowledge of Africa and the indian Ocean.

Explanation:

First of all,  we have to analyze each option.

1.- is correct because at the time the Spanish and Portuguese crown were looking for new trade routes, land to colonize and develop learnings from the seas that no one else could have in order to take advantage of them. Those were difficult times for the European powers, they all looked or expansion and gather wealth. So they sponsored explorers to find new paths in the sea.

2.- The Spanish and Portuguese explorations sponsored by their respective crowns were focused to develop expansionism and trade. Instead of finding new ways to treat diseases. So it's wrong.

3.- Both the Portuguese and Spanish crowns were supported by the catholic church and it was their official religion. So, they couldn't provide separatist movements. In fact, they lead fights against countries just because they had different perspectives from Catholisism. So it's wrong.

4.- Portugal and Spain tried o get colonies by exploring the seas, so it's wrong.
