Answer:

-the domestication of plants and animals led to more permanent settlements

Step-by-step explanation:

Domestication of plants ocurred in the river valleys, as the agricultural revolution in the Neolithic enabled growth and control of crops. With a better system of water supplies, the plants, being the primary source of food for animals then led to domestication. In the end small settlements became large towns an later civilizations emerged.

Finally for the first time humans had stopped being hunters when this revolution ocurred.

The craddle of civilization was Mesopotamia, among the (Tigris and Euphrates), They firstly made sure the plants had as much water as they needed to grow, according to the floods , and planted them in areas with the right share of sun. Within weeks or months later, as plants blossomed, people harvested achieved large food crops. The first domesticated plants in Mesopotamia were wheat, barley, lentils, and varieties of peas.
