Astronomy: The Mayans had their own solar calendar and knew the periodicity of eclipses. They inscribed on stone monuments formulas to predict solar eclipses and the heliacal rise of Venus.

The buildings were adorned with masks and crests carved in stone and stucco and generally painted red, due to the large amount of limestone available in the Mayan lands of the Petén; the lime and mixture was easily produced allowing the construction of impressive pyramids and palaces, generally the pyramids in the pre-classic period were crowned with three wooden temples and thatched roof, known as "Triadic Complexes"; during the classic they had one or two rooms with the characteristic Mayan vault.

Astrology: there are 20 daily signs, each month corresponds to an animal: Crocodile (Imix), Wind (Ik), House (Akba), Lizard (Kan), Snake (Chiccan), Death (Cimi), Deer (Manik), Rabbit (Lamat), Water (Muluc), Dog (Oc), Monkey (Chuen), Grass (Eb), Reed (Ben), Jaguar (Ix), Eagle (Men), Vulture (Cib)

Many things were positive, especially when it came to exchange of goods, plants, and animals. Unfortunately, there were some negatives in it, with the spreading of diseases being among the most influential. The exchange between the two sides is known as the Columbian exchange.

The Europeans and the Native Americans had some diseases that were unique about them, and their immune systems were adapted to them, but they didn't had response for the diseases of the opposite side. Both sides suffered from this, but the effect was much greater among the Native Americans, as the majority of their populations died out because of the spreading of European diseases among them, such as the common cold and the smallpox.

slega [8]

True


Islamic faith do not prohibit birth control. the prophet himself allowed coitus interruptus but the woman must consent to it as it denies satisfaction and child giving which are her rights. Islamic scholars interpreted this to allows child birth controls very early in their time, unlike Christianity and judaism which consider sacred the issue involving procreation, based on the story of Onan and his punishment by Yahweh.

What does International interdependence mean?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

International interdependence means that countries depend on each other to get the resources that they need for their countries.

For example, Saudi Arabia’s main export is oil. Other countries don’t have deep oil wells as they do, so they import oil from Saudi Arabia.

So basically international interdependence means that countries depend on each other for their resources.

Hope this helps and pls mark me brainliest if it did :)
