A secondary source is one that is written about a primary source. It comes second on the hierarchy of receiving historical information because it has to be based on a primary source, which gives the actual information. A history documentary is an example of a secondary source.

The correct answer is C) Agriculture-based societies have a more reliable source of calories, but are more vulnerable to drought.

When the land is fertile and there exist the appropriate climate conditions, agriculture changes people's lives. Nomad people had to follow the animal herds everywhere they roamed to hunt them and feed their families.
