Answer:

The Red Lantern is a symbol of perseverance and determination.

Explanation:

The Red Lantern is given to the last musher who crosses the finish line and completes the Iditarod. The Iditarod Trail Committee lights a widows lamp in Nome on the first Sunday of March, the day of the restart. They hang it on the Burled Arch and it stays lit until the final musher crosses the finish line. It is then extinguished. This practice came from the days of the Gold Rush when dog sled teams were used to move freight and mail. Each roadhouse along the trail would light a kerosene lamp and hang it outside the roadhouse to help the mushers find their way in the snow and darkness. It was also a signal that there was a dog team out on the trail. The lamp was extinguished when the dog team safely reached its destination.

Answer:

for perseverance

Explanation:

The red lantern award is for the last place musher in the dog race (Iditarod) in Alaska.  The race is about a thousand miles from Anchorage to Nome and is given for the perseverance and determination of the last candidate to finish the race and for not giving up. The idea of the red lantern is from the previous years where a red lantern was placed on the last car of the train to warn other's from bumping into the train.

How did a warming climate 12,000 to 10,000 years ago impact the Paleo Indians living in the Americas at the time?
lisabon 2012 [21]
I think that the best answer is: <span>b.paleo Indians relied less on hunting big animals and more on fishing and gathering food


let's look at the options:  </span><span>

a. paleo Indians went to war with each other on a large scale due to scarce water resources
- This could be true if it was really hot, but this was not the case. Warming did not mean a really hot climate, but less harsh: so actually, there would be more, not less water resources.


b.paleo Indians relied less on hunting big animals and more on fishing and gathering food
- this is possible ! a warmer climate would mean that there would be more possibility to fish or gather food, which would mean that people didn't have to hunt - and they would not want to hunt big animals, as it's dangerous.

c.paleo Indians faced food shortages that resulted in a lower population
-no, a warmer climate would mean more, not less, food

d.paleo Indians lost land to rising sea level's</span>
-no, they still had a lot of land.
