Explanation:
The missions were religious constructions built in colonized territories to convert native people to catholicism. These types of buildings were mainly used by Spanish colonizers and Spanish religious leaders. Moreover, the use of missions was common in Spanish territories including texas and they were a colonization strategy to have power over native people and the resources of the area.
Besides this, missions implied an important cultural exchange as Spanish colonizers brought new religious traditions and practices, and soon this had an effect on the native's religion. According to this, missions in Texas change the culture in the region because "new religious traditions were introduced."
