The answer is option A "a belief that the United States had a duty or destiny to expand westward." When the Manifest Destiny began the settlers thought that God himself told them to expand, so they though that God gave them a duty to expand westward and many people thought it was their destiny to carry out God's will.

Hope this helps!
