To determine which statement describes a characteristic of East Africa, we can analyze each option and see which one fits.

Option A states that the mountainous region of East Africa made it difficult to protect itself from invaders. This could be a characteristic of East Africa, as natural barriers such as mountains can impact the region's ability to defend itself.

Option B states that after Christianity came to the region, Islam was no longer practiced after the 1000s. This statement does not reflect a general characteristic of East Africa. While there have been shifts in religious practices over time, it would be incorrect to say that Islam was completely abandoned in East Africa after Christianity was introduced.

Option C states that through trade, East Africa became a multicultural mix of diverse cultures. This statement is accurate and reflects a prominent characteristic of East Africa. East Africa has a long history of trade and cultural exchange, which has contributed to its diverse and multicultural nature.

Option D states that East Africans produced cotton and grain that they traded for slaves from the Middle East. While there has been some historical involvement in the slave trade in East Africa, this statement does not accurately capture the overall characteristic of the region. East Africa's trade and economic activities have been much broader than just the slave trade.

Based on the analysis, option C - "Through trade, East Africa became a multicultural mix of diverse cultures" - is the most accurate statement describing a characteristic of East Africa.

I'll be glad to check your answer.
