The statement that explains a difference between the perspectives of the Aztec and the Inca on the arrival of the Spanish is: Montezuma thought the arrival of the Spanish could mean the return of their god Quetzalcoatl; Atahuallpa thought the Spanish would honor the Incan chief.

To arrive at this answer, we need to examine the perspectives of both the Aztec and the Inca regarding the Spanish. The Aztec believed that the arrival of the Spanish may signify the return of their god Quetzalcoatl, who was prophesied to come back and potentially bring about major changes. Montezuma, the Aztec ruler, saw the Spanish as potentially important figures and wanted to establish a joint rule with them.

On the other hand, the Inca, led by Atahuallpa, had a different perspective. They did not have such a prophecy or belief in the return of a god like the Aztec. Instead, Atahuallpa thought that the Spanish would honor and respect the Incan chief, and he may have been more open to providing them with riches and wealth.

Therefore, the difference in perspective between the Aztec and the Inca is reflected in the statement that Montezuma thought the Spanish arrival signaled the return of Quetzalcoatl, while Atahuallpa thought the Spanish would honor the Incan chief.
