C. Separation of powers although I guess it also ties in with checks and balances and the branches of the government
All I know is part A to the question :The geography of India greatly influenced the location of early settlements on the subcontinent. Both the Indus and the Ganges rivers carried rich silt from the mountains to the plains. When the rivers flooded, the silt spread over the plains and made the soil in the river valleys fertile for farming.
<span>Genetics.
Gregor Mendel is considered the "father of genetics" in modern science. Johann Mendel (his birth name) graduated from the Philosophical Institute at the University of Olmütz in 1843. Then he decided to become a monk, joining the Augustinian order at the St. Thomas Monastery in Brno (in the Austrian empire). As a monk, he was given the name Gregor.
He continued his studies in the sciences at the University of Vienna, his studies funded by the monastery. Around 1854, Mendel began experimenting with plants in the monastery's garden, especially exploring the transmission of hereditary traits in plant hybrids.
From his experiments with pea plants, he proposed basic laws of genetics such as the Law of Segregation (that there are dominant and recessive traits which are passed on from parent to offspring), and the Law of Independent Assortment (that individual traits were transmitted from parent to offspring independently of other traits).</span>
