Answer 1

Hunter-gatherers, nomadic herders, farmers, and traders developed in this order in human history.

Step-by-step explanation:

The occupations listed most likely developed in the following order in human history: hunters and gatherers, nomadic herders, farmers, and traders. Hunter-gatherers were the earliest form of human society, where people hunted animals and gathered wild plants for survival.

Nomadic herders emerged as a result of the domestication of animals, which allowed them to follow their herds for resources. Farmers came next with the development of agriculture, cultivating crops and raising livestock. Finally, traders emerged as settlements grew into towns and cities, creating centers of trade and commerce.
