5 0

Answer:

1)By "cargo," Diamond felt that Yali meant "material goods, the trappings of technology, "ranging from steel axes, matches, and medicines to clothing, soft drinks, and umbrellas." He saw it as a discussion of the lack of equality in the world and a question of why development occurred at such different rates in different places.

2) Errington and Gewertz believed that Diamond misunderstood Yali's question about cargo because he interpreted it to be a question about technology and goods. However, Errington and Gewertz believed that what Yali really meant about it, was a question about relationships and social structure.

Explanation:

The answers were found in the book titled "Guns, Gems and Steel" by Jared Diamond

What was the steps for the aztecs human sacrifice​
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

When the Aztecs sacrificed people to Huitzilopochtli (the god with warlike aspects) the victim would be placed on a sacrificial stone. The priest would then cut through the abdomen with an obsidian or flint blade. The heart would be torn out still beating and held towards the sky in honor to the Sun-God. The body would then be pushed down the pyramid where the Coyolxauhqui stone could be found. The Coyolxauhqui Stone recreates the story of Coyolxauhqui, Huitzilopochtli's sister who was dismembered at the base of a mountain, just as the sacrificial victims were. The body would be carried away and either cremated or given to the warrior responsible for the capture of the victim. He would either cut the body in pieces and send them to important people as an offering, or use the pieces for ritual cannibalism. The warrior would thus ascend one step in the hierarchy of the Aztec social classes, a system that rewarded successful warriors.

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice "<span>Russia was less economically developed than England and relied on a strong monarch to address the nation’s issues."
