Answer:

C. Maggie Lena Walker.

Explanation:

Maggie Lena Walker was born on 15th July, 1864, Virginia to Elizabeth Draper, a former slave, and Eccles Cuthbert, an Irish American confederate soldier. She grew up in the estate of Elizabeth Van Lew whom her mother worked for. There Walker learned about freedom, equality and civil rights.

From a very young age, Walker joined a local council called the Independent Order of St. Luke that worked for the upliftment of the African-American communities. She served the council for the rest of her life.

After her graduation in 1883, she joined as a teacher at Lancaster School, her former childhood school, and worked there for three years. Then after years of studying accounting at night and withdrawing inspiration from Order of St. Luke, Walker established the St. Luke Penny Savings Bank in 1903.

eduard
<span>The economy of these early civilizations was based on agriculture. The correct answer is B. Industry and production are incorrect answers because at the time, no technology existed so these options were impossible to live on. While warfare is a plausible option, agriculture is better because it provided them with crops and plants that they could cultivate and live on.</span>
