arlik [135]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answers are

(A) Da Gama sailed around Africa to India.

(B) Portugal became the leader of the navigational arts in Europe.

(C) Magellan was sent on the first voyage around the world.

(E) It grew in wealth and importance from its all-water route to the Orient.

Explanation:

Alongside Spain, the Portuguese were one of the first European countries to actively explore the oceans and look for a route to the East Indies.

One of the most popular explorers in Portugal was Vasco Da Dama who was the first person in history to sail around Africa and reach India.

Later on, the Portuguese sponsored Ferdinand Magellan to explore more of the oceans and he became the first person in history to circumnavigate the earth.

This not only cemented their position in Europe as the best sea explorers but brought them a lot of wealth and prosperity due to their all-water route to key trading areas.

jolli1 [7]
With the development of technology, a lot of electronic waste has been created and it's polluting the environment because such devices are commonly thrown away and there's so many of them. This is combined with the rise in CO2 emission which required numerous countries to join the battle against the climate change. The ozone layer was also heavily damaged but it has been improving in recent years.
