The correct answer is - from west to east.

On the globe that is presented, the arrows clearly point to a movement of the air masses from west towards east. Both on the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere, the movement is in the same direction, and also, there's no difference in the direction of the cold air masses and the warm air masses. These winds are known as westerlies, prevailing westerlies, or as anti-trade winds.

These winds have opposite movement from the winds that appear on the Equator, as those winds move from east towards west.

What physical feature allowed settlers in the Fertile Crescent to grow crops? sea tides flooding rivers natural canals eroding m

Drupady [299]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The Fertile Crescent is basically where human civilization started. It stretches from Mesopotamia and across the Mediterranean coast to Egypt. Early civilizations depended on agriculture. To make agriculture, you need a river because it is a good water source to help grow your crops.

If you look at the map I have provided below, you will see that there are tons of rivers. This would make it very easy for settlers to grow crops. This means that sea tides and eroding mountains aren't the answer. I don't think the rivers were flooding and natural canals is an oxymoron because canals are artificial waterways, but this all should give you and idea.

Have a wonderful day! :D
