Question

I need help with this one. Society as a whole was advanced by agriculture. Land that is farmed can support more than 50 times the number of people that same land can support through subsistence (bare necessities) living. Because of agriculture, a standing armies developed among the stronger societies. b great forests in North Africa were destroyed. c hunter-gatherers were able to buy food from neighbors. d the building of cities was delayed by 1000 years.

Answer 1

Agriculture led to population growth, labor specialization, and the establishment of sophisticated settlements.

Step-by-step explanation:

The birth of agriculture triggered a host of additional changes in the way humans understood land, the way they organized socially, the amount and forms of wealth they could acquire, and even the religious traditions they practiced. Agricultural societies experienced a degree of population growth and labor specialization that ultimately allowed for the establishment of a number of sophisticated Neolithic settlements. These settlements became the basis for the first revolution in human survival.

Answer 2

Im not completely sure but I think its B: great forests in North Africa were destroyed. My reason for this decision is that they probably destroyed the great forests for agriculturable land.

Hope this helps!
