2.) The correct answer is  D; colonies. A land grant is used to give property to a person or a group of people. The Mexican government started using the land grants to give others land in the Territorio de Nuevo México. This land was then turned into ranchos by the people and groups who received land grants. Not only were the grants for Mexican people, but for the Native Americans and Spaniards. Today, most of the these land grants are property in New Mexico in the United States.

3.) The correct answer is B; Settlers found valuable resources in land-grant lands. In the 1800's when the government gave free land to settlers, they wanted the land that was already granted to others because of the vast resources, this causes numerous disputes among the natives and settlers.

4.) The correct answer is D; an elementary school in Farmington. One of the schools that is located on the original state land given by a land grant is located in Farmington, this school is benefited because of the state money and grants it receives. There is also a school in Santa Fe that reaps the same benefits.
