B. slums
C. rural areas <<<<<<
D. suburbs
I suppose but I would say immigrants who stay in their new homeland. For example the Puritans were immigrants into the United States and brought their political and religious traditions with them. However migrants is another thing from immigrant and I wonder if it is a typo.
2. I would say slums.
Farmers are not all poor and starving.
People who live in poor, overcrowded urban areas, or _____________, are unable to meet their basic needs.
To find the answer to the first question, we need to understand what cultural traits are and how they can be spread. Cultural traits are the shared behaviors, beliefs, and traditions of a particular group of people. One way cultural traits can be spread is through the migration of people from one place to another, as they bring their cultural traditions with them to their new homeland.
To answer question 1, we need to identify which group of people mentioned in the options is most likely to bring cultural traditions with them when they migrate.
Option A, Traders, may bring goods and new ideas to different places, but they may not necessarily bring cultural traditions with them.
Option B, Explorers, refers to individuals who venture into new territories to discover new lands, but their main objective is exploration rather than bringing cultural traditions.
Option C, Migrants, refers to people who move from one place to another and do carry their cultural traditions with them to their new homeland. This option fits the description we are looking for, as migrants bring their cultural traits with them.
Option D, Native Americans, refers to the indigenous people of the Americas. While Native Americans have their own cultural heritage, they are not the group mentioned in the question that spreads cultural traits through migration.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer to question 1 is B. Explorers.
Moving on to question 2, we need to determine which term best fits the description of people living in poor, overcrowded urban areas who are unable to meet their basic needs.
Option A, urban areas, refers to cities or densely populated areas. While people living in urban areas can face challenges, it does not specifically address the condition described in the question.
Option B, slums, is the correct answer. Slums are characterized by poor living conditions, lack of basic services, and overcrowding.
Option C, rural areas, refers to areas outside of cities and can have its own challenges, but it does not specifically address the condition described in the question.
Option D, suburbs, refer to residential areas on the outskirts of cities and are generally associated with better living conditions compared to slums. This option does not fit the description provided in the question.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer to question 2 is B. slums.
