a) People of the Southwest were instructed in cultivating drought-tolerant crops by traders from civilizations in present-day Mexico.
b) People of the Southwest developed systems of canals to divert water from nearby rivers to irrigate their crops.
c) People of the Southwest developed a seasonal calendar that allowed them to predict the best times of year to plant and harvest.
d) People of the Southwest primarily cultivated drought-resistant grasses for animal feed and subsisted on meat from livestock.
Answer: b) People of the Southwest developed systems of canals to divert water from nearby rivers to irrigate their crops.
Explanation:
The Hopi were part of the western Pueblo tribes, while the Hohokam were the ancestors of the Pima and Tohono O’odham, and were located in the western and southern limits.
Their developments in agriculture required access to rivers, smaller streams, and seasonal waterways, so they built stone canals to irrigate their fields.
Answer: 1. Manufacturing
2. Banking
3. Construction
Explanation: Though the War of 1812 severely damaged the American economy because of the British blockade, the aftermath gave a dramatic boost to certain sections that helped rebuild the American economy.
The British blockade of the American coast created a shortage of cotton cloth, leading to the development of American manufacturing capabilities, with the creation of a cotton-manufacturing industry at Waltham, Massachusetts.
The Americans were incapable of financing the war and this exposure of the nation's financial weaknesses fueled the decision by Congress to charter the Second Bank of the United States in 1816.
The war also encouraged the construction of the Erie Canal, a project that was built to promote commercial links but could also be used for military purposes if there was ever a need for it.
