Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• Option 1: "Native Americans endured famine, lack of supplies, and disease." The Indian Removal Act forced Native Americans to relocate, often with insufficient resources, leading to famine, supply shortages, and disease. This is correct.
• Option 2: "Native Americans struggled to live amongst white settlers in Florida and Georgia." The removal was about relocating them away from white - settled areas, not struggling to live among them. This is incorrect.
• Option 3: "White settlers wanted fast - moving waterways to help power factories in Georgia." The Indian Removal was more about land acquisition for white settlement and cotton plantations, not factory waterways. This is incorrect.
• Option 4: "Native Americans were driven from their lands and forced to move into Indian territory." The Indian Removal Act's main impact was removing Native Americans from their southeastern lands to Indian Territory (present - day Oklahoma). This is correct.
• Option 5: "Native Americans were forced to move northeast for fertile farmland." The Indian Removal Act forced them to move west, not northeast. This is incorrect.

Answer:

1. Native Americans endured famine, lack of supplies, and disease.
2. Native Americans were driven from their lands and forced to move into Indian territory.
