Question

Following the neolithic revolution a group of people formed a farming community along the nile river. which of the following would most likely be true for these people?

a. people had more predictable food supply.
b. food was more difficult to find than it was before the Neolithic Revolution
c. more people needed to put time and energy into producing enough for everyone
d. people needed to follow their food sources from season to season

Answer 1

Answer: a. people had more predictable food supply.

In general, farming communities had a more predictable food supply than humans who did not engage in farming. Moreover, the region along the Nile was particularly fertile during this time period. The Nile regularly overflows, which not only irrigated the crops, but also provided nutrients to the soil. This allowed the development of great civilizations, in particular that of Ancient Egypt.

Answer 2

It is most likely that these people "had more predictable food supply," since the Nile River provided essential irrigation for the crops in the surrounding areas, which led to better harvests.
