The question was to fill the missing word (the hint was only that heredero is masculine):
The Heir to the crown ....
______ heredero de la corona
I answered "El" and was told it is incorrect, it should have been "Un". This seems wrong?
Both answers are correct and based on the response from Inma, the correct answers should be " El Pretérito Perfecto". Please revise this lesson to make it clear as to which answer you want maybe by prefacing each question with "In Latin America".
I have not found a dictionary that shows ir to mean “get to”. Is it correct?

I know a lot of people have brought up the fact that seguir + present participle and continuar + present participle have the same meaning, so they selected one answer which was marked as incorrect. I realize that the question specified that multiple answers could be correct but the fact that so many people were confused by this makes me think it wasn’t very clear. Maybe you should instead say “Select all of the correct answers” instead. Anyway, I do have an actual question - is there any subtle difference between the two, or any situations in which you would use one over the other? Does it vary by country or region? Just curious. Muchísimas gracias, y que tenga un buen fin de semana!

I'll spend some time on this exercise because I find these uses of "se" to be very interesting.
Also this was my first encounter with "echa/echan." There does not appear to be a lesson dedicate to its conjugation, but there is this which seems to be sufficient: https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/revision/grammar/expressing-instructions-and-general-statements-with-the-impersonal-se-one.
What are the verb endings in this tense? Although it is noted that the verb stem is the same as in the future tense, I do not find a list of the verb endings anywhere.
