To answer the questions:
1. How did the Ancient Puebloans adapt to their physical environment?
The correct answer is A. They built networks of ditches to irrigate the desert.
The Ancient Puebloans, also known as the Anasazi, inhabited the southwestern region of North America, which is characterized by arid and desert-like conditions. To adapt to their physical environment and support their agricultural needs, the Ancient Puebloans developed an advanced system of irrigation. They built networks of ditches to divert water from nearby rivers and streams to their fields, allowing them to grow crops in an otherwise inhospitable environment.
2. Which of the following is a main difference between the cultures of the Ancestral Puebloans and the Mississippians?
The correct answer is A. The Ancestral Puebloans were known for building stone homes while the Mississippians were known for building mounds.
The Ancestral Puebloans, as mentioned earlier, were known for their advanced architectural skills and for building intricate stone homes called cliff dwellings. On the other hand, the Mississippians, who inhabited the southeastern region of North America, were known for constructing large earthwork mounds, often used for ceremonial or governmental purposes. So, the main difference lies in the types of structures each culture built.
3. What was the Middle Passage?
The correct answer is D. a part of the triangular trade where slaves were transported to the colonies.
The Middle Passage refers to a specific route of the transatlantic slave trade during the colonial period. It involved the transportation of enslaved African people from Africa to the Americas, particularly to the colonies in North and South America. This was the second leg of the triangular trade, where European ships would carry goods to Africa, exchange them for enslaved individuals, and then transport them across the Atlantic to be sold as laborers in the colonies.
