Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

I believe the answer is: C.By comparing a message written in both hieroglyphics and Greek, scholars were able to translate the hieroglyphic symbols.

Since the 6th century, the ancient greek and egyptian civilizations has already involved with one another through trades and travelling scholars. Because of this, cultural assimilation happened between the two, and many writings in greek actually depict a simialr writing that could be found in egyptian hieroglyphics.
Answer 2
Answer: It is C. Archeologists unearthed the "Rossetta stone" it had the same message in hieroglyphics, Greek, and I think Latin. Using these languages they used Greek and the other language to decipher
Hieroglyphics

Is adding food coloring and oil into water is it a chemical or physical change?

Answers

That's a physical change. There are no chemicals reacting with each other, it's the simple presence of concentration of food colouring and oil in water that changes its appearance.
Both are physical. it's not changing the actual substances; by adding food coloring, you still have water. the formula for the compound hasn't changed, and you can separate the food coloring from the water. They aren't bonded together 

As for boiling water, that's just changing the state of the water. if you cool the water down, it'll change back to a liquid.

Mark the statement if it accurately describes Portugal’s claim to Brazil. A. The explorer who claimed Brazil was following a plan to sail far to the west to find and claim land for Portugal.

B. The explorer who claimed Brazil was able to do so because Brazil lay east of the Line of Demarcation drawn at the Treaty of Tordesilla.

C. A map of South America that shows the 1494 Line of Demarcation explains why the people of Brazil speak a different language from most of the people living in the rest of South America.

Answers

A. The explorer who claimed Brazil was following a plan to sail far to the west to find and claim land for Portugal.

- this is not likely, as at the time lands "far" to the west belonged to Spain!


B. The explorer who claimed Brazil was able to do so because Brazil layeast of the Line of Demarcation drawn at the Treaty of Tordesillas.
This is true!  This treaty "split" the world among Spain and Portugal: and Portugal then pushed the boundary, making today's Brazil bigger


C. A map of South America that shows the 1494 Line of Demarcationexplains why the people of Brazil speak a different language from mostof the people living in the rest of South America.
-well, yes, it can be said to be true: it shows that people east of the line of demarcation speak Portuguese, and then the line was not followed exactly which explains why people immediately west to this line also speak Portuguese: the line was "shifted"

So I think B and C

The answers are B and C. I had it on a test and those were the answers :)
