Answer 1

Answer:

From the both excerpts, Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt have the following in common:

1. Both Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt had a system of measurement which they developed to measure time/period.

Below is an evidence that supports my answer:

Mesopotamia: "They also created a number system  based on the number 60-a system that is still used to measure seconds and minutes.

Ancient Egypt: "Early Egyptians began to notice the Nile's predictable flood pattern and developed a 365-day calendar to help track the seasonal flooding."

2. Both Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt possessed fertile farmlands which supported the growth of crops.

Below is an evidence that supports my answer:

Mesopotamia: "The lush farmland created a surplus of grain, barley and other oats, and this is how many other workers were paid."

Ancient Egypt: "The flood would last for several weeks, and once the Nile receded it left behind a layer of silt that was extremely rich and ideal for farming."

3.  Both Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt practiced farming.

Below is an evidence that supports my answer:

Mesopotamia: "Since there was a large surplus of these crops many people were able to leave farming to pursue other professions".

Ancient Egypt: "Even more important, however,  was how the Nile allowed the Egyptians to farm and cultivate their crops".

Explanation:

The two excerpts reveal that both Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt had some things in common.

Both regions developed a system of measurement, there was availability of fertile soil which supported  farming and there was practice of farming in the regions.
