The density of ice is less than water - that's why it floats on water. I think this property is unique in liquids.

If ice was equal or heavier density than water then the oceans would be solid except for near the surface, which would be very bad for aquatic life!!

Which statement best describes the social status of women in ancient Egypt? Women were viewed as the lowest social class. Women
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

In ancient Egypt, women were given many of the same rights as men.

Explanation:

The women in ancient Egypt were in no way seen as the lowest social class, so this statement is not correct.

The women were allowed by law to do pretty much everything as the men, so their status was not dependent on their husbands, so it is not a correct statement.

The women were equal in front of law in ancient Egypt, as well as being able to do the same things as men, so this statement is correct.

Women did not have the same status as their fathers, so this is not a correct statement.
