Answer 1

I think C (?)

Step-by-step explanation:

Afraid of losing their identity and therefore their legacy, the Pilgrims of Leiden decided to leave behind the harsh conditions of Leiden in search of a new home. They didn't want to end up assimilating, or being punished for their beliefs. In the end, they decided to sail to America.

Not A because they left England for religious persecution not Netherlands

I found on Google=

They left the Netherlands, not England, in 1620 because of lack of space for their growing numbers, their belief that the Protestant atmosphere was weakening the belief of their children and the impending end of the peace treaty between the Netherlands and Spain

Answer 2
