Answer 2

The correct answer is B) the Adena, the Hopewell, and the Mississippian.

The option that lists only pre-Columbian American Indian groups that lived in what now is Ohio is the Adena, the Hopewell, and the Mississippian.

The Adena lives in some territories of what today is Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana during the early Woodland period of 2800 to 2000 BC.

The Hopewell inhabited the Ohio lands in the Middle of the Woodland period, about 200 BC. They were a culture, not one tribe, that spread through the land of the Great Midwest.

The Mississippian were Native American Indians that lived in the Mississippi River Valley from 900 to 1400 AD. They were mostly farmers that established their homes next to the River.
