Final answer:

The answer that does not describe a reason for Sargon's conquest of Sumer is the claim that Akkadians were able to hide in the mountains, which is inconsistent with Mesopotamia's geography.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking which among the provided options was not a reason that led to Sargon's conquest of Sumer, a significant historical event in Mesopotamia. The factors that did contribute included the division of the Sumerian city-states and the conflicts over natural resources among kingdoms. However, the statement that the Akkads were able to hide in the mountains is not a reason for Sargon's conquest of Sumer, as Mesopotamia is predominantly a flat region with no significant mountains for hiding.
