English

zaharov [31]4 years ago

Well they would generally be fed coarse corn meal boiled, which they referred to as mush. What they were fed was enough to sustain grown men and women through their backbreaking labors in the field.

This what by any means considered a luxury meal and they often grew their own crops and stole just to get a good meal. I believe they were treated that way as a means of showing them how minuscule they were, how they were the equivalent of pigs. A way to establish where they stood and where their master stood, a way to oppress and subjugate them.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

  D. The study of a society and its natural environment.

Explanation:

  It is the study of human adaptation to social and physical environments. It is a part of a social science theory that gives scholars a way to think why people do what they do in a particular region.

  The central argument of this theory is that the natural environment is a major contributor to social organization and other human institutions. We affect the environment and this one is affected by us too.

  I hope this answer helps you.
