Correct. The answer is d. Countries with large overseas empires, especially Britain, had many more regions that served as destinations for emigrants. Conversely, countries like Sweden, with no overseas colonies, had no colonies to draw Swedish emigrants. For economic reasons then, they chose, instead, to go to the United States.

Correct. The answer is b. Italy was a Catholic country, as were Argentina and Brazil during this period. It seems most likely that religious considerations motivated the significant percentages of Italian emigrants who chose to resettle in those countries in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
