Answer 1

O Egypt was a long, skinny civilization clinging to the Nile river for life.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe this is the answer because the Egyptian civilization developed along the Nile River, because the river's annual flooding ensured, rich, fertile crops.

hope this helps!

Answer 2

O Egypt was a long, skinny civilization clinging to the Nile river for life

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nile River is a long, narrow river that flows through Egypt. The ancient Egyptians built their civilization along the banks of the Nile River, as it was the only source of water in the desert. The civilization was long and skinny because it followed the course of the river.

The other options are incorrect.

• Option A is incorrect because Egypt was not a short, fat civilization.
• Option B is incorrect because Egypt did not only develop on the Eastern or Western bank of the Nile River.
• Option C is incorrect because Egypt did develop on both banks of the Nile River.
