I came across a few things when I typed in "hieroglyphics facts" on Google :)

This was all found on the website Ducksters.com. Here is the link: https://www.ducksters.com/history/ancient_egyptian_hieroglyphics.php

*I did not come up with any of this information. All credit goes to Ducksters.com*

  • It could be written in almost any direction; left to right, right to left, or top to bottom. The reader would figure out which way to read it by the direction of the symbols.
  • They didn't use any punctuation.
  • One of the goals in writing hieroglyphics was that the writing would look like art and be beautiful to look at.
  • A single picture symbol could stand for a whole word, called an ideogram, or a sound, called a phonogram. For example, a picture of an eye could mean the word "eye" or the letter "I".

There's a lot more on other sites, too, but I hope this helps you! :)

The correct answer is - natural selection.

This is a typical case of natural selection, where we have a group of people that have similar physical traits, that are selected and than isolated from any external influence, so with interbreeding they manage to keep their physical traits for generations to come and thus create a population that resembles their initial ancestors.

What made it possible for suburbanization to occur during the cold war in the U.S?
FrozenT [24]
SUBURBANIZATION<span> describes the general trend of city dwellers to move from the city into residential areas in ever-growing concentric circles away from the city's core.

</span><span>Postwar suburbanization was the result of a complex web of governmental and economic conditions that scholars have yet to adequately explore.  One of the most important of these factors is also one of the most overlooked: the anxiety-filled onset of the Cold War. 


Though frequently cited in passing as an influence on certain aspects of suburbanization, the Cold War is rarely given the serious and microscopic treatment it deserves.  It is understandable why historians and urbanists would shy away from a topic as complex as the war, about which much has been written outside a suburban context.  </span>
