- Eastern Woodlands: practiced slash-and-burn agriculture to clear the land for planting
- Great Plains: relied on hunting because of their grassland environment
- Southeast: practiced slash-and-burn agriculture to clear the land for planting
- Southwest: relied on hunting because of their grassland environment
The correct responses are:
Eastern Woodlands: Americans of the Eastern Woodlands relied on hunting because of their grassland environment.
Great Plains: Native Americans of the Great Plains practiced slash-and-burn agriculture to clear the land for planting.
Southeast: Americans of the Southeast relied on hunting because of their grassland environment.
Southwest: Native Americans of the Southwest practiced slash-and-burn agriculture to clear the land for planting.
To determine the correct responses for each environment and their corresponding agricultural practices of the Native Americans, we can consider the characteristics of each region.
1. Eastern Woodlands:
The Eastern Woodlands region, which spanned across the northeastern and southeastern parts of North America, was characterized by vast forests and a more temperate climate.
2. Great Plains:
The Great Plains region, located in the central part of North America, was characterized by vast grasslands, prairies, and a semi-arid climate.
3. Southeast:
The Southeast region, encompassing parts of the southeastern United States, was characterized by a mix of forests, wetlands, and a humid climate.
4. Southwest:
The Southwest region, located in the southwestern part of the United States, was characterized by arid deserts and canyons.
Based on these characteristics, we can match the regions to the corresponding agricultural practices:
- Eastern Woodlands:
The Eastern Woodlands region relied on hunting as the main source of food due to the abundance of forests and wildlife.
- Great Plains:
The Great Plains region relied heavily on hunting as well, primarily due to the lack of fertile soil and the abundance of grasslands where large herds of bison were present.
- Southeast:
The Native Americans in the Southeast practiced slash-and-burn agriculture, which involves clearing land by cutting and burning vegetation, before planting crops. This method was used because the region had a mix of forests and wetlands suitable for farming.
- Southwest:
The Native Americans in the Southwest, specifically in arid areas such as deserts, relied on agriculture. They practiced specific techniques like irrigation and terracing to cultivate crops such as maize (corn), beans, and squash.
So, the correct responses would be:
- Eastern Woodlands: Relied on hunting
- Great Plains: Relied on hunting
- Southeast: Practiced slash-and-burn agriculture
- Southwest: Practiced agriculture
