Answer 1

Deserts, cataracts, the Red Sea, and Mediterranean Sea were natural barriers that protected Egypt from invasion.

Correct answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

The deserts, cataracts, the Red Sea, and Mediterranean Sea were natural barriers that protected Egypt from invasion.

The desert, such as the Sahara and the Kalahari, acted as natural obstacles, making it difficult for armies to traverse across. The cataracts in the Nile created waterfalls and rocky areas that made the river impassable.

The Red Sea and Mediterranean Sea acted as natural boundaries, limiting access to Egypt from the seas.

Correct answer is A
