Without additional context or the actual questions or quiz to which these answers correspond, it's difficult to assess the correctness of the answers provided. However, based on the statements given, here's a quick analysis of each point:

1. **D** - Historically, the Dutch did establish a trading post empire, most notably through the Dutch East India Company, which focused on controlling trade routes and monopolizing trade, particularly in spices and other valuable goods.

2. ** - If "the trading post empire" refers to an empire that established trading posts as its primary means of exerting control rather than acquiring large territories, this would be a characteristic of Portuguese and Dutch empires in Asia.

3. **D** - The Portuguese maritime empire had significant impacts, including these. The Portuguese played a role in continuing the Columbian exchange (though it was initiated by the Spanish), expanding global trade, the spread of Christianity, and often undermining local customs and beliefs.

4. **C** - The Dutch were indeed quite strategic in setting up trade alliances, especially in East Asia (like with Japan at Dejima) and in securing the spice trade.

5. ** - This is a little trickier to verify without specific context. The Ottoman Empire did have periods where its navy was not as dominant as others, such as after the Battle of Lepanto in 1571. However, they were still a significant maritime power for quite some time. Without a specific context, it's hard to assess whether this statement is accurate regarding why a particular maritime empire was successful in comparison to the Ottomans.

Without the context of the questions these answers are meant for, it's not entirely clear that these responses are 5/5 correct, but they generally align with historical understanding of the maritime empires in question. To determine the answers' correctness, the actual questions or statements they address would be necessary.
