Question

like the ancestral pueblo, another group called the hohokam found creative ways to grow crops in the dry southwestern environment. the hohokam brought water to their crops by building one of the largest canal networks in the world. these canals were up to 45 feet wide, which means that whole communities must have cooperated to build them. altogether, the hohokam created 500 miles of canals!
what do the canal networks suggest about the hohokam? select two.

• many people worked together on farming projects.
• they were skilled builders and engineers.
• religious worship was a central part of their lives.
• most of their food came from hunting large animals.

Explanation:

1. For "Many people worked together on farming projects": The text says "whole communities must have cooperated to build them" (the canals for crops), so this is supported.
2. For "They were skilled builders and engineers": Building one of the largest canal networks (up to 45 feet wide, 500 miles long) shows engineering and building skills.
3. "Religious worship..." has no text support.
4. "Most of their food..." contradicts as they grew crops (needing canals for water), so hunting isn't main.

Answer:

A. Many people worked together on farming projects.
B. They were skilled builders and engineers.
