Yes, the correct answer is C. Ferdinand Magellan's accomplishments include sailing around South America before sailing across the Pacific Ocean to the Philippines.
To arrive at this answer, it is important to look at the options and assess which accomplishments are associated with Ferdinand Magellan. Here's how you can determine the correct answer:
1. Ferdinand Magellan did not sail around the southern tip of Africa before reaching Calicut, India (option A). This achievement is credited to Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama.
2. Magellan did not sail to the Caribbean islands and pioneer trade between Europe, Africa, and the Americas (option B). This accomplishment is commonly attributed to Christopher Columbus.
3. Ferdinand Magellan did indeed sail around South America before sailing across the Pacific Ocean to the Philippines (option C). This voyage, known as the Magellan-Elcano circumnavigation, was the first successful attempt at circumnavigating the globe.
4. Finally, Magellan did not sail to North America and establish colonies in present-day Quebec and Montreal (option D). These achievements are associated with French explorer Samuel de Champlain.
Thus, option C correctly describes the accomplishments of Ferdinand Magellan.
