Answer:

<h2>C.) Quinine cured malaria.</h2>

Explanation:

Quinine was used to treat malaria until 1940's. It was prepared from the bark extracts of Cinchona tree. The first antimalarial compound from its bark was isolated in 1800s. This tree is native to Peru and there is ample evidence which proves that it has been used to treat malaria since 1600s. Quinine was in widespread use until 1940's when new drugs with lesser side effects replaced it.

Answer:

The answers to your questions are below.

Explanation:

1. A very important moment of the Aztec civilization was their religion: they worshiped the Sun god and offered human sacrifice to him.

This is supposed to be one of the reasons they did not kill all the Spanish soldiers - <u>they planned on sacrificing them</u>. This turned out to be a fatal decision since the Spaniards later managed to conquer them.

Another belief is that they thought the Spaniards were their gods.

2. The Incan Empire relied mostly on their infrastructure. They had <u>good engineers and architects who built roads and canals</u> in order to retain control over newly conquered lands.

Their laws were also very strict and everybody needed to work in order to contribute to the community. For the Incas, <u>work was a way of taxing their people.</u>

3. One of the similarities of these two civilizations was their religion. Both Aztecs and the Incas practiced <u>human sacrifice</u>. They worshiped many gods but the most important one was without any doubt the Sun god.

Also related to religion, the Incas and the Aztecs built temples. These temples' architecture was <u>similar to the Egyptian pyramids</u>, only what they did was <em>overbuild</em>, meaning they used ancient temples as base for new temples, so they did not destroy but build <em>on top</em>, in order to build even greater temples.

On the other hand, the Aztecs and the Incas were very different. The Incas excelled in engineering and building, while the Aztecs were artisans who created luxurious jewelry and headdresses.

There is another thing that is government related. While the Incas worried about maintaining power over the conquered peoples, the Aztecs missed out on that and they had <u>these peoples turn against them and fight them when the conquistadors arrived.</u>
