  12. #6 Which statement best describes the impact of the Paleolithic hunting and gathering lifestyle on population growth? • Paleolithic humans successfully adapted their hunting and gathering techniques to an extremely wide range of environments. • Hunting and gathering limited the spread of early humans to areas of Africa that had moderate temperatures. • The spread of population in the Paleolithic Age cannot be studied due to the small number of surviving artifacts. • Hunting and gathering were quickly displaced by agriculture, which provided greater prosperity in all physical environments.

  13. Paleolithic humans successfully adapted their hunting and gathering techniques to an extremely wide range of environments

  14. #7 The geographic location of hunter-gatherers occurred because of • food sources. • religious practices. • tool making. • government regulations.

  15. food sources.

  16. #8 What important advance of Paleolithic man would fall at the question mark on the timeline above? • Developed hieroglyphics • Learned how to make and use fire • Developed weaving • Developed pottery

  17. Learned how to make and use fire

  18. #9 Early people stopped roaming with the — • development of agriculture • building of aqueducts • invention of the wheel • discovery of iron

  19. development of agriculture

  20. #10 The increased agricultural productivity of the Neolithic Period • ended the hunter-gatherer lifestyle. • reduced the making of cultural artifacts. • promoted the rise of large population centers. • diminished the threat of epidemic disease.

  21. promoted the rise of large population centers.

  22. #11 Scientists who study past cultures by analyzing human remains, fossils, and artifacts are called • geologists. • archaeologists. • psychologists. • entomologists.
