<u>Answer:</u>

We consider Greenwich time while calculating the time for various places in the world because the Prime Meridian or the 0° longitude passes through Greenwich.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The 0° longitude marks the first meridian that the Sun passes over from. It acts as the line of reference for the world countries to set their times in accordance with it.
  • The Greenwich mean time was established in 1952 and it is since then that all the world countries have been following it.

What physical feature allowed settlers in the Fertile Crescent to grow crops? sea tides flooding rivers natural canals eroding m
Drupady [299]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The Fertile Crescent is basically where human civilization started. It stretches from Mesopotamia and across the Mediterranean coast to Egypt. Early civilizations depended on agriculture. To make agriculture, you need a river because it is a good water source to help grow your crops.

If you look at the map I have provided below, you will see that there are tons of rivers. This would make it very easy for settlers to grow crops. This means that sea tides and eroding mountains aren't the answer. I don't think the rivers were flooding and natural canals is an oxymoron because canals are artificial waterways, but this all should give you and idea.

Have a wonderful day! :D
