Answer and Explanation

Domestication of animals is a process of taming animals and making them friendly so that they can stay together with humans. The main aim of domestication is to get profit from their production e.g meat, eggs,skin and manure among other benefits. I

Domestication allowed civilization because many people shifted from their traditional way of living like hunting and engaged themselves in animal rearing which helped them even to interact with other community in trading as they marketed their animal products.

The main way in which domesticating livestock allowed civilizations to spread is that people were freed up to do other things like woodworking and opening shops, since they no longer needed to hunt and gather their food and resources.
