History

Slavery started because people liked having other people work for free, so they enslaved others. They were brought by ships from Africa. They would usually work on farms and ranches. The jobs were different because of the climate. One type of climate made it possible to grow cotton, another to grow tobacco, another for crops, and so on. They were important because they were free. Since wealthy land owners didn't have to pay workers, they got extremely rich because they had almost no losses at all.

Slaves were important to the colonial economy because the more slaves you had the more money you gained from either selling them or off of their hard work and laboring.

When did Homo habilis first begin to use stone tools?
MissTica

The correct answer is A. In the Old Stone Age

Explanation:

The Homo habilis was a species of hominid that preceded the Homo Sapiens (modern humans); this specie originated around 2.3 million years ago and lived in groups. Besides this, the Homo habilis was one of the first species to create tools using stone; indeed, it was found Homo habilis selected and cut stones to use these to cut meat or even plants. This important technological advance occurred during the Old Stone Age or Early Stone Age, which refers to the first period in which hominids created stones that occurred between 2.6 million years ago and 10,000 years ago. Thus, the Homo habilis first began using tools in the Old Stone Age.
