Give an example of how a group of early Americans adapted to their environment, and one example of how a gr changed their environment to fit their needs.

Early American Native tribes adapted to their environment by using sustainable farming techniques such as crop rotation and intercropping to cultivate their land. They also utilized hunting and gathering practices to gather food and resources from the natural surroundings. This allowed them to thrive and survive in diverse and often challenging environmental conditions.

On the other hand, early American settlers changed their environment to fit their needs by clearing large areas of land for agriculture, building settlements and towns, and diverting waterways to power mills and irrigation systems. These changes often had significant impacts on the landscape, biodiversity, and ecosystems of the areas in which they settled.
