Answer:
The idea that humans evolved in Africa can be traced to Charles Darwin. In his 1871 book The Descent of Man, Darwin speculated that it was “probable” that Africa was the cradle of humans because our two closest living relatives—chimpanzees and gorillas—live there. However, he also noted, a large, extinct ape once lived in Europe millions of years ago, leaving plenty of time for our earliest ancestors to migrate to Africa.

The correct answer is D, <em>Cathedrals needed to accommodate the growing practice of pilgrimage to visit holy relics</em>.
Explanation:
During the 11th and 12th centuries there was an increase in the number of pilgrimage voyages in medieval Europe. Many people traveled long roads to visit cathedrals that were believed to possess holy relics, that is objects that had belonged to saints or that were saints' bodies' parts.

Explanation:
The Lousiana Purchase was important because New Orleans is located at the mouth of the Mississippi River that at that time was the main highway of trade and commerce for the US. When the French took over New Orleans from the Spanish they revoked the “right to deposit” that allowed the Americans to use the Port.
With the purchase, the US acquired approximately 827 thousand square miles of land for 15 million dollars. It doubled the size of the US, removed threats of French of blocking US trade, added agricultural power to the US.
(the first thing the question needs to fix is that it should be "What problems did the pilgrims faced and how did they deal with them?")(sorry) The pilgrims faced many problems. Where to put shelter, food resources, wild animals, and natives. For food and shelter, they had no time to mess around. They got straight to building and tried to do it fast. They picked berries and other fruits that they knew weren't posiones. The hunted the wild animals thanks to some natives. The other natives didn't want thm in their land so they would attack. The pilgrims responded by attacking back. I hope I answered your question correctly and I hope it helps you out.
