Answer:The Native Americans of the north and northwest are different than the Native Americans living in the west and south west because in the north and northwest they hunted large animal, fished, ate wild plants. However, in the southwest and west they hunted, farmed, gathered plants, and trapped small animals.

The food sources of Native Americans of the North and Northwest differed from that of Natives that lived in the West and Southwest due to the impact of climate which determined the types of food that were available. People in the North and Northwest did not farm. Irrigation allowed the people in the west to farm in dry areas.
