Social Studies
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]4 years ago
7 0

The answer is - droughts.

The region in which the Maya civilization existed, even though in general had a stable climate throughout the year, occasionally, on every few years, was experiencing a long drought. The droughts in this period of time could have been fatal because they were destroying much of the plants that were providing food for the people, and also lack of freshwater. So the Maya came out with a smart method, they started to build cisterns, and when there was rain the cisterns were filled with water that can be used later on when there's crises for it.

Sidana [21]

<u>Answer: </u>

The 14th Amendment guarantees Equal protection .

<u>Explanation: </u>

The 14th Amendment addresses various matters regarding the citizenship and rights of the citizens. This amendment guaranteed that all individuals would be treated the same way without any sort of discrimination, and this shall be done regardless of the circumstances.

This ensures the protection of civil rights and allows a government to rule impartially without making any distinctions based on matters of irrelevance. When an individual feels that either the federal or the state government has violated this clause, he /she can file a lawsuit against the government for relief.
