Answer:

The correct answer is:

- both civilizations were located in Mexico

- both civilizations used hieroglyphics

- both civilizations built pyramids

Explanation:

Olmecs were located along the Gulf of Mexico, that is, in today's modern states of Veracruz and Tabasco, while Mayans were located in the parts of southern Mexico.  

Mayan hieroglyphics contained approximately 800 characters, based on pictorial complexity and phonetic signs. The Olmecs also used hieroglyphics that were based on syllabic signs, similar to some West African writings.

Mayans used pyramids as temples and royal tombs. Their pyramids were built from carved stone with a top platform that usually contained a statue of some Mayan deity. Olmecs built pyramids for the same reason; their pyramids were built of earth and clay, located in their historical center, La Venta.

Lesechka [4]
The question has a definition word of "copperheads" which is something they want you to define. So if you rearrange the question, it can be a multiple choice question stating:

Copperheads were midwesterners who sympathized with the south and objected to

A) abolition
B) slavery

Abolition is to over throw something and start a new version of what has been overthrown

Slavery was the ownership of African Americans (seeing as this question was linked to the civil war)

Hope you can find the answer easier now (:
