Answer 2

Egyptian practice contribute to "advancements" in the science field by "preserving human bodies" through "mummification" let Egyptians learn about "anatomy and medicine".

Step-by-step explanation:

• Mummification was practiced in Egypt in ancient times almost 3000 years ago. Initially natural desiccation was used to preserve the bodies and later the use of organic balms was put into practice to preserve the human bodies.

• This enabled the Egyptians to learn about "anatomy" of the 'human body' and the ways in which it can be preserved. This process of mummification also helped in learning about medicine.
