Answer:

C. Columbus believe the Earth way smaller than it actually is, is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Christopher Columbus is credited with for discovering America. He was born in Genoa, Italy in 1451. He learned about map making and ship navigation in Lisbon. He and his brother had heard about the riches of China and East Asia and hence Columbus planned to reach china by crossing Atlantic Ocean because overland silk route was dangerous and going around Africa was too long. But he was proven wrong because Earth was larger than he thought and there was another land the Americas, between Asia and Europe.
