Answer:

Irrigation was the process of pulling water away from the main source of water using small man made trenches. Irrigation has been used for thousands of years even by the earliest civilizations. Irrigation can be used to bring drinking water into a city but it is used mostly to water crops. Sadly Irrigation will eventually destroy the Lakes,Rivers, or even seas that are being irrigated from, take the Aeral Sea for example, once a beautiful sea full of water is now nearly an empty sand bed all due to extensive irrigation.

Explanation:

Irrigation's purpose in the Middle East is to supply water to crops in arid regions, but it has led to negative environmental impacts including the desiccation of the Aral Sea and soil salination.

The purpose of irrigation is to provide a steady supply of water to crops to ensure their growth in areas where rainfall may not be sufficient. This has been particularly necessary in the Middle East due to its predominantly arid climate. One environmental effect of irrigation in the Middle East has been the diminishing of the Aral Sea, largely caused by the diversion of the rivers that fed it for agricultural irrigation.

Another widespread impact is soil salination, which occurs when evaporation leaves behind salts that can render soil infertile and lead to desertification. Furthermore, in cases like the construction of the Aswan High Dam in Egypt, while irrigation and hydroelectric power were augmented, it also led to unintended ecological consequences, such as the spread of disease and erosion of the Nile Delta.

Answer:

B. The rights granted by the petition of right or later reflected in the articles of confederation. 

Explanation: B

The Petition of Right influenced subsequent democratic documents, such as the Articles of Confederation, by establishing constitutional limitations on the monarchy and granting specific rights to citizens.

The statement that most accurately describes the influence of the Petition of Right is option B: 'The rights granted by the Petition of Right were later reflected in the Articles of Confederation.'

The Petition of Right was a significant document in 17th-century England, whereby Parliament set down a series of specific rights and liberties for the people, largely in response to King Charles I's overreach of power. It set the groundwork for constitutional limitations on the monarchy, specifically prohibiting the king from taxing without consent of Parliament, imposing martial law in times of peace, and arresting citizens without cause. These rights were then echoed in the Articles of Confederation, which were adopted by the newly independent United States of America in 1777. This document was America's first constitution and incorporated many of the principles articulated in the Petition of Right.

Answer:

They moved south to find Rome and then spread around a place now known as Italy

Explanation:

The Romans initially expanded throughout central and southern Italy, integrating areas such as Apulia and Campania. The expansion was multidirectional from Rome’s central position, both southward and northward, ultimately encompassing the entire Italian Peninsula.

The ancient Romans originally settled around the city of Rome, which was built on seven hills and surrounded by swamps in central Italy. Initially, the Romans expanded their territory by settling throughout central and southern areas of the Italian Peninsula before moving further afield. Geographical advantages such as its hills and the Tiber River, which facilitated trade, contributed significantly to Rome's ability to expand. The Romans established themselves in regions like Apulia and Campania, and eventually brought under their control territories inhabited by various Italic tribes, Etruscans, and Greek colonies in southern Italy.

Due to Rome's central location in Italy, the process of settlement and territorial acquisition extended in all directions. The Roman expansion encountered resistance from various peoples, such as the Samnites, Etruscans, and Greek colonies, but through a series of wars and diplomacy, Rome gradually subdued these peoples and incorporated their lands into its growing domain.

In Roman history, the movement of Roman settlement throughout Italy was not confined to a single direction. Instead, it progressed outward from Rome's central location predominantly southward and northward, ultimately integrating the entire Italian Peninsula under Roman control and setting the stage for further expansion across the Mediterranean world.
