disease and starvation. after the explorers came with diseases, they also brought 'foreign' critters with them (worms, for one) that changed environment.

b. disease
Many Spanish explorers came over carrying diseases from Europe. The Native Americans had never come in contact with this before and their immune systems couldn't handle it.

I would have to say disease, and slavery, because many of them got these diseases after being enslaved. Some diseases that were particularly devastating to the Native Americans included small pox, tuberculosis, and in some cases even the Black Plague.

b - disease
For a discussion of why this is so, read "Guns, Germs and Steel", which explains why it wasn't the other way around.
(Why didn't 90% of the Spaniards die of Native American diseases?)

Since everyone else already answered this, I'll tell you it was "disease," but if you really want a detailed account of this, read the book 1491.
