- Analyze each option:
- Option 1: The chart shows US gained territory, not about US population increase due to migration (no info on migration for US population here), so incorrect.
- Option 2: Mexico lost territory, and there's no info on Mexico gaining US respect, incorrect.
- Option 3: US gained territory rich in natural resources (from chart), which would help economic expansion, correct.
- Option 4: The chart focuses on US gaining territory and Mexico losing land, no info on Mexican population increase due to migration, incorrect.
- Option 5: No info on US government losing popularity, incorrect.
- Option 6: No info on US military staying in Mexico, incorrect. Also, the correct options should relate to the chart. Wait, re - evaluating: The US gained territory (from the "Gained territory rich in natural resources" row), so "The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically" is correct. Also, let's check again. Wait, maybe I missed. Wait, the other correct option: Wait, the chart for US: ~17,000 soldiers killed/wounded/died of disease; Mexico: ~25,000 soldiers and civilians killed/wounded. But the options: Wait, maybe the two correct are "The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically" and let's see another. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the options: Let's re - check the chart. US gained territory rich in natural resources (so economic expansion via new territories). Also, is there another? Wait, maybe the first option was misjudged. Wait, no, the chart doesn't talk about US population increase due to migration. Wait, maybe the correct options are "The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically" and maybe another? Wait, perhaps I messed up. Wait, the problem says "choose the two correct answers". Let's re - examine the options:
Option 3: "The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically" – matches the US "gained territory rich in natural resources" (natural resources help economic expansion).
Is there another? Wait, maybe I missed. Wait, the other option: Let's see, maybe the first option is wrong, the second is wrong, the third is correct, and maybe another? Wait, perhaps the user's options: Wait, the options are:
- The United States population began to increase due to migration.
- Mexico gained the respect of the United States.
- The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically.
- The Mexican population began to increase due to migration.
- The United States government lost popularity with the American people.
- The U.S. military stayed in Mexico leaving the U.S. vulnerable to foreign invasion.
From the chart, US gained territory (so option 3 is correct). Now, is there another? Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, perhaps the other correct option is not among the ones I thought. Wait, maybe the chart's Mexico section: "Lost valuable lands for cattle grazing" – but the options don't directly relate. Wait, maybe the two correct are option 3 and maybe none? No, the problem says two correct. Wait, maybe I misread the options. Wait, let's check again. Oh! Wait, maybe the first option: "The United States population began to increase due to migration" – no, the chart doesn't say that. Wait, maybe the answer is 3. The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically (and maybe another, but perhaps in the original problem, the two correct are this and maybe I missed. Wait, perhaps the user's intended correct options…

- The United States gained new territories that would help it expand economically (and if there is another, but based on the analysis, this is one of the correct options. If we assume the two correct are this and maybe another, but due to the chart, this is a correct one. However, if we have to choose two, maybe I made a mistake earlier. But based on the chart's "gained territory rich in natural resources", option 3 is correct.
