For the first question, you were asked to identify the Andean countries in South America. Let's go through the options one by one:
1. Ecuador and Bolivia: This answer is correct. Both Ecuador and Bolivia are countries located in the Andean region of South America.
2. Peru and Chile: This answer is also correct. Peru and Chile are indeed Andean countries.
3. Ecuador and Colombia: This answer is incorrect. Although Ecuador is an Andean country, Colombia is not part of the Andes mountain range.
4. Venezuela and Brazil: This answer is incorrect. Neither Venezuela nor Brazil are considered Andean countries.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 1 - Ecuador and Bolivia, and option 2 - Peru and Chile.
For the second question, you were asked to identify the most accurate statement about the ancestry of most people in Central America. Let's evaluate each option:
A. People in Central America are of African ancestry: This option is incorrect. While there are populations of African descent in Central America, it is not the predominant ancestry.
B. People in Central America are of mestizo ancestry: This option is mostly accurate. Mestizo refers to a mixed ancestry of Indigenous and European heritage, which is the predominant heritage in Central America.
C. People in Central America are of Spanish ancestry: This option is incorrect. Spanish ancestry is a significant component, but it does not represent the majority of the population.
D. People in Central America are of diverse ancestry: This option is the most accurate. Central America has a diverse population with a mix of indigenous, European, African, and other diverse ancestries.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D - People in Central America are of diverse ancestry.
