Answer: Option D. DES (Diethylstilbestrol)

Explanation:

Diethylstilbestrol was given to pregnant women to prevent complications during pregnancy. These could include having a miscarriage or giving birth too early. There were possibilities that the daughters of the women who used DES to prevent miscarriage were more likely to get a certain kind of cancer of the vagina and cervix. Diethylstilbestrol, or DES, is a synthetic form of estrogen. Estrogen is a female hormone. DES was given to millions of pregnant women between 1938 and 1971.

Which of the following is true of the Maya, Inca, and Aztec civilizations?
Mariana [72]

I can at least tell you it isn't

The Aztec traded everything. So, If it's supposed to fit all three of them, it's already out for that option. (And all of them traded.)


I think, It'd have to be the last option left then, Corn being an important crop. <u><em>It should be.</em></u>
