To answer this question, we need to identify the civilizations that influenced the Aztec Empire in terms of their written language, calendars, pyramids, and other similar structures. Let's break down the options provided:

a) Peruvian and Ecuadorian civilizations: While the Peruvian and Ecuadorian civilizations had their own advancements and cultural achievements, they did not significantly influence the Aztec Empire in terms of their written language, calendars, pyramids, or structures. Therefore, option a) can be ruled out.

b) Toltec and Chavin civilizations: The Toltec civilization, which existed in present-day central Mexico, is known to have had a significant influence on the Aztec Empire. The Toltecs helped shape the Aztec culture, including their religious beliefs, military practices, and architectural styles. On the other hand, the Chavin civilization developed in present-day Peru but did not have a direct influence on the Aztecs. Therefore, option b) can also be ruled out.

c) Chilean and Mexican civilizations: While both Chilean and Mexican civilizations have their own unique cultural aspects and achievements, neither of them directly influenced the Aztec Empire in terms of their written language, calendars, pyramids, or structures. Therefore, option c) can be ruled out.

d) Olmec and Mayan civilizations: The Olmec civilization, which emerged in present-day Mexico, is known as a predecessor to the Aztec Empire. The Olmecs developed a complex society with advancements in writing, calendar systems, and architecture. They built pyramids and other similar structures that influenced the later Mesoamerican civilizations, including the Aztecs. Similarly, the Mayan civilization, which thrived in present-day Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and parts of Honduras and El Salvador, had a significant impact on the Aztecs. The Mayans had a sophisticated writing system, a precise calendar, and created impressive pyramids and structures. Therefore, option d) is the correct answer.

In conclusion, the Olmec and Mayan civilizations influenced the Aztec Empire in terms of their written language, calendars, pyramids, and other structures, as shown by option d).
