Answer: D.His YMCA students needed an indoor activity during a snowstorm

Explanation:

In the winter of 1891, male students at the then International YMCA Training School, Springfield, Massachusetts were restless from not having any sports to play as most games they played such as Lacrosse and football (soccer) needed to be played in warmer weather.

The school realised that there was a need for an indoor sport that could be played regardless of the weather outside. This is where James Naismith came in.

He came up with a game that drew influence from Rugby, Lacrosse and Soccer and for the goals baskets were used because that was all the janitor had. The baskets however needed people underneath them to retrieve ball and it was only a few years later that it was cut at the bottom to enable the balls to fall through the basket. He then drew up 15 rules and this was the birth of basketball.

What is the fullform of etc​
yarga [219]

Answer:

The full form of etc is <em>''et cetera''</em>

Explanation:

<em>"Et cetera"</em> is a term borrowed from Latin that we often use when we want to say 'and other things', 'and so on', or 'and the like'. It indicates sequence of similar items. Instead of the full form, we usually use the contracted form in writing. However, in spoken language, we usually read the full form - et cetera.

Describe the woman who causes Enkidu's transformation what might her role indicate about early Mesopotamian cultures beliefs abo
viva [34]

The woman who promotes the transformation in Enkidu is called Samate. She is a prostitute, beautiful and extremely sensual. She seduces Enkidu and makes him fulfill all his desires, thus bringing him closer to the characteristics that a civilized man must possess.

This says a lot about the vision of women and the process of civilization that the first cultures of Mesopotania had. This shows that the woman was seen as a being full of whims and manipulations that had the ability to shape the man and make him reach levels that he could not achieve alone. It also reveals that one of the characteristics of civilization was that men had the possession of a woman and established a relationship with her that would spur her wild side, but that would lead her to rationality.
