Explanation:
I love anything about Egyptians so this is right up my ally
Answer:
C
Explanation:
They are linked to the invention of the latter's cuneiform writing on clay tablets. Other sources, however, date the earliest cylinder seals to a much earlier time, to the Late Neolithic period (7600-6000 BC), hundreds of years before the invention of writing. (They were used as an administrative tool, a form of signature, as well as jewelry and as magical amulets; later versions would employ notations with Mesopotamian cuneiform. In later periods, they were used to notarize or attest to multiple impressions of clay documents. Graves and other sites housing precious items such as gold, silver, beads, and gemstones often included one or two cylinder seals, as honorific grave goods.

Snake Story
Becky moved off of the porch slowly, backing through the door and into the house. She slammed the sliding glass door shut and stood for a moment, relieved to have something solid between her and the snake on the porch.
The glass was cool under her hands despite her pounding heart. She tried to slow her breathing. She was safe, at last, inside. Or was she? How had that snake gotten into the screened-in and walled-up back porch. If it could get in there, it's possible it could get inside where she was as well.
Becky wasn't someone who was normally skittish about wild things. She'd handled snakes before, picked up lizards many times, caught frogs in the garage and let them go. But snakes seemed to always catch her off guard. They would turn up when least expected. She would see them out of the corner of her eye and just the surprise of it would make her jump; her adrenalin would pump, her heart would thump, and her panic would take over.
What was she going to do? She couldn't just stand there waiting for the snake to decide to leave. What if it were venomous? It didn't look like a viper, but it could be. She would need to get out there soon to water the plants.
"What this requires is some advanced planning," she said out loud to her cat, Louie. "And, I will probably have to go 'once more into the fray' kitty," she said, looking in the cat's direction for emphasis.
"First things first, though," she said. The cat meowed back. It often did that, having become used to being talked to. "Let's look that fellow up," Becky said walking to her bookshelf.
"Let's see, snakes," she said, thumbing through her reptile and amphibian identification book. "It's brown and gray, with some black. With a pattern that looks ... there it is," she said thumping the page so hard that Louie jumped. "Not venomous," she said, triumphantly.
"It's an oak snake, Louie," she returned the book and strode over to her closet. "Not venomous, but I am still not taking chances," she said.
She reached into the closet and pulled out her heaviest jacket. It was lined and stuffed thick with lots of padding. Then she found her mittens and a pair of rubber boots. She knew even non-venomous snakes would sometimes threaten to strike when scared. "And that threat would work on me," Becky said aloud again, though Louie had no idea what she was talking about.
"It's 90 degrees outside, Louie," she said, "so get the iced lemonade ready for when I return."
It wasn't much of a plan, but it was the best she could come up with. With her armor on, she was already sweating when she slowly pushed open the sliding glass door and stepped back on to the porch.
She was pretty sure the snake would slither away from her presence. She propped open the outside door, and hoped she could shoo the snake in that direction.
Sweat dampened her arms and collected on her face. She spread her arms out, and took a few steps toward the snake. There was so much for it to hide beneath. Becky regretted the rocking chairs and all the plant stands between where the snake was in the corner and the door to the outside.
At first it seemed like the snake was just going to remain where it was, flicking its tongue every now and then. Becky waved her arms, lunged in its direction, and stomped her feet. It sat there, coiled in the corner, as if perfectly happy to remain there. In a fit of desperation, she picked up one side of the rocking chair the snake was under and let it drop. The snake jumped, raised its head like it was going to strike, and then stayed right where it was.
"Snake," Becky said, "This is not how it works. You have got to go." The snake moved its head back and forth, swaying a bit, and that gave Becky an idea.
She had read somewhere that snakes can "hear" thanks to the ability to process vibrations through the bone in their jaw. This awareness of vibrations in the ground was one reason it was very hard to sneak up on snakes. She quickly realized that getting the snake out was going to be a lot easier than she had thought.
Becky turned on the radio she kept on the porch and lowered it to the ground, pointing in the snake's direction. She adjusted the controls so that the bass was as high as it could go. Then she cranked up the volume. She envisioned the snake swaying to the sounds of "Dancing Queen by Abba, and then leaving the porch and going far far away.
Coming back into the house she began peeling off the now damp armaments she had put on earlier. "Louie, there is more than one way to skin a snake," she said laughing. She watched as the snake uncoiled and moved cautiously in the direction of the door. Bending down to pick up Louie Becky sighed and stroked his head. "'Cause no one ever wants to skin a cat sweetie
The glass was cool under her hands despite her pounding heart. She tried to slow her breathing. She was safe at last inside.

Question 1: How was Pizarro’s conquest of the Inca similar to Cortés’s conquest of the Aztecs?
Question 2: Why were small numbers of the Spanish able to conquer large areas of the Americas?
Answers
Answer: Your welcome!
Explanation:
Answer 1: The conquests of Pizarro and Cortés both involved the Spanish arriving in large numbers to an area largely populated by Indigenous Peoples. The Spanish used their superior military technology and tactics to overwhelm and defeat the Indigenous populations. They then used their political and religious power to gain control of the area and impose their will on the Indigenous people.
Answer 2: The Spanish were able to conquer large areas of the Americas due to their use of superior military technology and tactics. The Spanish forces were armed with muskets and other firearms, while the Indigenous people typically only had access to primitive weapons such as spears, bows and arrows. The Spanish forces were also organized and trained in the use of European tactics, allowing them to outmaneuver and overpower the Indigenous forces. Additionally, the Spanish were able to use their political and religious power to gain control of the Americas, as they were able to manipulate the local Indigenous populations through missionary work and other forms of coercion.

Alexander Hamilton's quote implies that power can be dangerous in the hands of a few or the many, as either group may be prone to oppression. This suggests that power needs to be distributed in a way that prevents any one group from abusing it.
Benjamin Franklin's quote suggests that power and greed are two factors that often influence the way people behave. He is suggesting that those with power will often be tempted to use it in self-serving ways, rather than for the public good. This emphasizes the need for checks and balances on power.
George Mason's quote also suggests that those with power will seek to increase it. This highlights the danger of giving unchecked power to any individual or group, and reiterates the need for limits on power.
Overall, the quotes suggest that the founders were cautious about the potential for abuse of power, and were keen to establish systems of government that would limit the power of any one group or individual.

I need to know everything about Egypt for my test
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:Egypt is a country located in northeastern Africa and southwestern Asia. It has a rich and fascinating history that spans over 5000 years. Here are some key points about Egypt's history:
1. Ancient Egypt: The civilization of Ancient Egypt emerged around 3100 BC and lasted until 30 BC when it was conquered by Rome. It is known for its impressive monuments like the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Temple of Karnak. The Egyptians were also famous for their hieroglyphic writing system, which is one of the oldest in the world.
2. Pharaohs: The Ancient Egyptians were ruled by a series of pharaohs, who were considered to be divine kings. Some of the most famous pharaohs include King Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Cleopatra.
3. Religion: The Ancient Egyptians had a complex polytheistic religion that included many gods and goddesses. They believed in an afterlife and spent a great deal of time and resources preparing for it.
4. Greek and Roman Rule: After the conquest of Egypt by Alexander the Great in 332 BC, Egypt came under Greek rule. Later, it was conquered by Rome in 30 BC and became a Roman province.
5. Islamic Conquest: In 641 AD, Arab Muslims conquered Egypt and brought Islam to the region. Egypt became a center of Islamic learning and scholarship.
6. Ottoman Rule: Egypt was ruled by the Ottoman Empire from 1517 to 1798 when Napoleon Bonaparte invaded Egypt. The French occupation was brief, and Egypt was returned to Ottoman rule.
7. British Occupation: In 1882, Egypt was occupied by British forces and remained under British rule until 1952 when it gained independence.
8. Modern Egypt: Since gaining independence, Egypt has had a turbulent history marked by political instability, economic challenges, and social unrest. Despite these challenges, Egypt remains an important cultural and historical center in the world.
These are just a few key points about Egypt's history. There is much more to learn about this fascinating country and its rich heritage.
Answer:
Hie..! Here's the answer
Egypt, country located in the northeastern corner of Africa. Egypt’s heartland, the Nile River valley and delta, was the home of one of the principal civilizations of the ancient Middle East and, like Mesopotamia farther east, was the site of one of the world’s earliest urban and literate societies. Pharaonic Egypt thrived for some 3,000 years through a series of native dynasties that were interspersed with brief periods of foreign rule. After Alexander the Great conquered the region in 323 BCE, urban Egypt became an integral part of the Hellenistic world. Under the Greek Ptolemaic dynasty, an advanced literate society thrived in the city of Alexandria, but what is now Egypt was conquered by the Romans in 30 BCE. It remained part of the Roman Republic and Empire and then part of Rome’s successor state, the Byzantine Empire, until its conquest by Arab Muslim armies in 639–642 CE.
Until the Muslim conquest, great continuity had typified Egyptian rural life. Despite the incongruent ethnicity of successive ruling groups and the cosmopolitan nature of Egypt’s larger urban centres, the language and culture of the rural, agrarian masses—whose lives were largely measured by the annual rise and fall of the Nile River, with its annual inundation—had changed only marginally throughout the centuries. Following the conquests, both urban and rural culture began to adopt elements of Arab culture, and an Arabic vernacular eventually replaced the Egyptian language as the common means of spoken discourse. Moreover, since that time, Egypt’s history has been part of the broader Islamic world, and though Egyptians continued to be ruled by foreign elite—whether Arab, Kurdish, Circassian, or Turkish—the country’s cultural milieu remained predominantly Arab.
