d. botany
please select the best answer from the choices provided
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

The Long - Bell expeditions were likely to document natural aspects. Botany (the study of plants) is a natural science sub - field related to the natural environment. Geography (land features), wildlife (animals), and botany (plants) are all aspects of the natural world. Precious metals and minerals are more related to geology in a narrow sense (though geology is part of natural science, but not as directly related to the overall natural documentation as botany in this context). Spanish forts are related to history (a social science sub - field) and not in line with the natural - related terms (geography, wildlife) in the sentence.

Answer:

D. botany
