Temka [501]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>B</u>: adaptations to physical geography

Explanation:

The Aztec chinampas were the floating gardens, small areas of fertile land, which were used to grow crops in the Mexican valley.

 

The Inca terraces was a method used by Incas to create farmland and cultivate crops and maintain their agriculture system.

As Aztecs and Incas lived in the mountains, they didn’t have enough flat space to cultivate crops, so they had to use these farming techniques to maximize the amount of space on their territories, due to the physical geography of this region.

Tycho Brahe

1609
Johannes Kepler (1571 - 1630), a student of Tycho Brahe, publishes Astronomia Nova (New Astronomy), which contain his first two laws of planetary motion. Kepler's first law assumes that Mars has an elliptical orbit, which was a revolutionary idea at the time. Until then, the classical belief held that a circle was perfect, and therefore all orbits must be circular.

1609
Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) observes Mars with a primitive telescope, becoming the first person to use it for astronomical purposes.

1659
The Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens (1629 - 1695) draws Mars using an advanced telescope of his own design. He records a large, dark spot on Mars, probably Syrtis Major. He notices that the spot returns to the same position at the same time the next day, and calculates that Mars has a 24 hour period.

1666
Giovanni Cassini (1625 - 1712) observes Mars and determines that the rotational period, or length of one Mars day is 24h, 40m.

1672
Huygens is the first to notice a white spot at the south pole, probably the southern polar cap.

1698
Huygens publishes Cosmotheros, which discusses what is required of a planet to support life, and speculates about intelligent extraterrestrials. This is one of the first published expositions of extraterrestrial life.

Historical Perspective...


The Trial of Galileo

The 1600s were not an easy time in which to study science. The church was a powerful institution and had its own ideas about the nature of the universe. Galileo was a beliver in the Copernican theory that the solar system revolves around the sun. He was advised by Cardinal Bellarmino to be cautious and not to imply the the Copernican theory were real. He published a book, Siderius Nuncius (Starry Messenger) which was considered controversial and in opposition with the ideas of the Roman Catholic Church, and was arrested and tried in the Inquisition. Galileo was found guilty of heresy and was sentenced to life imprisonment and forced to recant. In secret, he wrote another book, which was smuggled out of the country and published in France. His work is now considered the foundation of modern physics.

Which statement about the Qur’an is true?
Olenka [21]
The answer is C. 
I got this answer by the process of elimination. Not A - Because it is a holy book consisting of the words of God (or Allah) that were revealed to Muhammad in a cave. Not B- The Quran is known for being written in only one language--that's Arabic (translations may be done in different languages, but a Quran itself will always be in the Arabic language.) Not D - Muslims constantly follow the Quran because it is their holy book, much like a Christian with the Bible or a Jew with the Torah. 
Hope this helped!
