Question 18 • FL-2109010-M/J World History A - Teacher Directed Resource

Why did people domesticate plants during the Neolithic era?

Answer
A
to adapt to the climate
B
to prevent soil erosion
C
to create a reliable food supply
D
to eliminate the need to hunt animals

Explanation

During the Neolithic era, people began farming by domesticating plants, which made food production more dependable than relying only on wild plants and hunting. A reliable food supply helped communities settle in one place and grow. Plant domestication did not eliminate hunting entirely, so choice D is too absolute.
