The Haida are located off the coast of Alaska. The Inuit live in Arctic regions of Canada. The Iroquois lived around where New York is now. The Pueblo lived in the southwestern US. Which two of these tribes do you think lived in an environment that could support farming?
Its the, Iroquois, and Puebloan
I buy into C and D but associate Haida with fishing and Inuit with hunting and fishing.
I'd rule out the Inuit as they lived in the far north where farming is nearly impossible.
Which two do you think were farmers?

To determine which North American civilizations adapted to their environment in part by farming, we can examine each option individually:
A. Haida: The Haida people are renowned for their maritime skills and dependence on fishing and hunting rather than farming. Therefore, farming was not a significant part of their adaptation to the environment.
B. Inuit: The Inuit people, also known as Eskimos, primarily relied on hunting, fishing, and gathering rather than agriculture as their main subsistence strategy. Therefore, farming was not a significant part of their adaptation to the environment.
C. Iroquois: The Iroquois people were one of the few civilizations in North America that adapted to their environment through farming. They cultivated crops such as maize (corn), beans, and squash, known as the "Three Sisters," which provided a sustainable and interdependent agricultural system.
D. Puebloan: The Puebloan people, also known as Ancestral Puebloans, utilized farming as a method of adapting to their environment. They cultivated crops such as maize, beans, and squash and developed complex irrigation systems to support their agricultural practices.
Based on the information above, the two North American civilizations that adapted to their environment in part by farming are the Iroquois (C) and the Puebloan (D) civilizations.
