Answer:

The area called the Fertile Crescent was home to early civilization. All of the following contributed to the rich and fertile soil in the region except  the Zagros and Taurus mountains, which protected the area from undesirable and harsh weather.

Explanation:

The Fertile Crescent is a place where thousands of years ago there were suitable conditions for the birth of civilization. It was an area very suitable for agriculture. Its territory extends from the African Nile in the west, through Cyprus, through the Mesopotamian lowlands and further along the Euphrates and Tigris rivers to the southeast to the Persian Gulf, to the foot of the Iranian highlands.

The area was suitable for agriculture as it was characterized by limited but regular rainfall. The Fertile Crescent is, or was, in reality not a particularly fertile region. However, it was a good place for the emergence of agriculture because there are many plant species suitable for domestication. Precisely because there was a relatively dry climate, there were very many types of grass present from which different types of grain could be domesticated.

Do you agree with Galileo’s actions during his Inquisition? Explain.
lisov135 [29]
For his own sake, no. What he did blatantly put himself in danger and finally was placed under interrogation, etc & so forth. 
For the sake of science, yes. What he did, and the consequences thereof, would have publicised his struggle, especially during the age of Enlightenment. Although what he did might also have momentarily pushed people away from science in fear of the consequences of facing the church due to the harsh punishment that he was subjected to. His persistence was, in the end only healthy for the development of science in later years.

The enlightenment ideas encouraged people to create things such as elections and parliaments to make choices. In case of a corrupt government, the people could change it completely with ease and without any blood spilled, which was a strong enlightenment idea.
