Answer 1

I believe that the development of agriculture was important for earlier humans because of D it allowed larger populations to be supported in one place and freed many people from the constant search for game and edible plants to survive. Before the development of agriculture, the overriding activity of man (man and woman) was to search for food and this occupied much of their time acquiring and processing food ie most of the small populations would be involved in this activity.

Answer 2

B. it allowed humans to continue to treat everyone in society equally
