Answer:

B. The fifth sentence elaborates on an assertion made in the preceding sentence.

Explanation:

Answer B

Correct. In the fourth sentence, the authors make a claim about the role of mathematics in the sciences, asserting that “the more [mathematics] can be applied usefully within a science, the more advanced the science.” The fifth sentence begins with the conjunction “For,” which is commonly used to introduce reasoning that explains or clarifies an earlier statement. And indeed, the fifth sentence does explain why the application of mathematics helps advance a science: because mathematics functions as both a precise language and a means of measurement.

Which of the following best explains the effects of Mongol trade policies?
svlad2 [7]

Answer: Mongols successfully spread their culture and religious beliefs along overland trade routes.

Explanation:

Under Genghis Khan and his descendants, the Mongols conquered a significant part of Asia and some of Europe to form the largest contiguous land empire in history. This meant that they took over a significant number of nations and trade routes.

These trade routes prospered under the Mongols as they gave trade and merchants special status. The security on these roads and the connections made to the various Mongol dominions enabled the Mongols to successfully spread their culture such that quite a number nations inherited their way of life.
