The correct answer is Ferdinand Magellan.Ferdinand Magellan was a Portuguese explorer who led the first expedition to circumnavigate the world. In 1519, Magellan set out on his voyage with a fleet of five ships. Although he was killed in the Philippines in 1521, his expedition continued and successfully completed the circumnavigation of the globe in 1522 under the command of Juan Sebastián Elcano.The other options are not correct:- Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer who is credited with discovering the eastern coast of South America in the late 15th century.- Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer who made four voyages to the Americas between 1492 and 1504, but he did not circumnavigate the world.- Vasco Da Gama was a Portuguese explorer who was the first to reach India by sea, but he did not circumnavigate the world.
