Answer:
10. Molino de agua
Aunque en un principio se adscribió a un origen árabe el descubrimiento del molino de agua, gracias a un estudio del investigador británico M.J.T. Lewis ha quedado demostrado que este invento tiene un origen griego.
Su invención en el siglo III antes de Cristo partió de la rueda de Perachora de la que habla el ingeniero griego Filón de Bizancio en su Tratado de Mecánica.
El molino de agua fue un invento revolucionario utilizado no solo para la molienda del grano sino también para las fraguas, batanes o diversos trabajos agrícolas.
9. Odómetro
El odómetro es un instrumento muy utilizado actualmente. Se utilizan para medir la distancia recorrida por vehículos como automóviles o bicicletas. Aunque ahora son digitales en su origen eran mecánicos. Se trata de un instrumento griego descrito por primera vez por Vitruvio en torno al año 27 antes de Cristo.
Su inventor parece que fue Arquímedes de Siracusa en torno a la Primera Guerra Púnica, aunque otros historiadores atribuyen su autoría a Herón de Alejandría.
7. Cartografía
Aristóteles menciona en su obra a Anaximandro como uno de los primeros cartógrafos que creó un mapa del mundo. Nacido a principios del siglo VII antes de Cristo, su mapa apareció en forma de tabletas y allí presentó las regiones habitadas. En él se representaba Jonia en el centro pero también situó las Columnas de Hércules, Etiopia, el río Nilo o el Mar Caspio.
La contribución de Anaximandro en el campo de la Cartografía y la Geografía lo sitúan como fundamental en esta disciplina que consiste en el estudio y la elaboración de mapas.
6. Olimpiadas
Las modernas Olimpiadas, los Juegos Olímpicos, se celebraron en 1896 a partir de la iniciativa del barón Pierre de Coubertin, fundador del Comité Olímpico Internacional. Inspirados en las antiguas Olimpiadas griegas, es el mayor evento deportivo de los época contemporánea.
En Grecia los primeros Juegos Olímpicos se remontan al 776 antes de Cristo. Estaban dedicados a los dioses del Olimpo y se organizaron en las antiguas llanuras de Olimpia cada cuatro años. Todo el pueblo griego se acercaba allí para presenciar este espectáculo inolvidable. Los campeones en cada disciplina recibían coronas de hojas de olivo como premio.
5. Las bases de la Geometría
Si hablamos de Geometría nos estamos refiriendo a una de las ramas más antiguas de las Matemáticas. Los egipcios, babilonios y la civilización del valle del Indo fueron los primeros en incorporar y utilizar técnicas geométricas pero nunca se interesaron en las reglas y axiomas que la rigen.
Con los griegos se cambió la percepción de la Geometría. Ellos fueron los que recalcaron que los datos geométricos deberían ser establecidos a partir del razonamiento deductivo.
4. Las primeras prácticas de la Medicina
Hipócrates de Cos, nacido en el 450 antes de Cristo, fue el médico griego de la Antigüedad más destacado y uno de los padres de la Medicina. Él comenzó a recoger datos y realizar experimentos, demostrando que la enfermedad era un proceso connatural al ser humano y que los signos y síntomas de una enfermedad eran causados por reacciones naturales del cuerpo.
Fundador de la Escuela de Medicina Hipocrática, una de sus grandes contribuciones fue la del llamado juramento hipocrático. Con este documento puso por escrito la primera norma ética que los médicos deberían poner en práctica al realizar su trabajo. Uno de sus conceptos es el de la confidencialidad médico-paciente.
3. Filosofía moderna
Los antiguos griegos desarrollaron la Filosofía como una disciplina que se ocupaba de la forma de entender el mundo que les rodeaba, sin recurrir a la religión, el mito o la magia.
Los primeros filósofos griegos eran también científicos y basándose en la observación y estudio razonado del mundo conocido pusieron los cimientos de uno de los pilares de la civilización.
2. El concepto de Democracia
La Democracia, en sentido estricto, es según la Wikipedia «una forma de organización del Estado en el cual las decisiones colectivas son adoptadas por el pueblo mediante mecanismos de participación directa o indirecta que confieren legitimidad a sus representantes».
En el año 510 antes de Cristo la ciudad-estado de Atenas creó el primer gobierno democrático. Por eso Atenas es considerada la cuna de la Democracia.
1. Descubrimientos de la ciencia moderna
Los antiguos griegos contribuyeron con diversas aportaciones a distintas ramas de la ciencia. Podemos decir que rompieron estereotipos contemporáneos tanto en Astronomía, Biología o Física, y fueron grandes matemáticos.

What is the relationship between Chief Joseph’s refusal to accept the Christian faith and his death?
Answer:
A. Chief Joseph was forced to travel to another reservation after shunning Christianity and became ill with malaria, which infected his heart
Explanation:
Chief Joseph, often referred to as Young Joseph, was a leader of the Wallowa band of Nez Perce after succeeding his father in the 1870s.
During his time, the majority of the group was removed with force by the United States federal government from Wallowa Valley to a smaller reservation in the Idaho Territory.
Eventually, Chief Joseph and a few others were taken to the Colville Indian Reservation in Nespelem, Washington. The place is far from both Wallowa and Idaho
This led him to shun Christianity and became ill with malaria, which infected his heart, and later died of a "broken heart, " according to his doctor.

Who was Benedict Arnold?
Explanation:
Benedict Arnold was an American military officer who served during the Revolutionary War. He fought with distinction for the American Continental Army, rising to the rank of major general, before defecting to the British side of the conflict in 1780.
Can i be marked as brainliest??Answer:
A traitor, a Major General, a friend and betrayer of George Washington, and much more.
Explanation:
Benedict Arnold, born on the 14th of January 1741, who died to the same day he was born on, the 14th of June, 1801. He fought with distinction for the American Continental Army, rising to the rank of major general, before defecting to the British side of the conflict in 1780. General George Washington had given him his fullest trust and placed him in command of West Point, New York. Arnold planned to surrender the fort to British forces, but the plot was discovered in September 1780 and he fled to the British lines. Arnold received a commission as a brigadier general in the British Army, commanding the American Legion in the later part of the conflict. Arnold's name quickly became a byword in the United States for treason and betrayal because he led the British army in battle against the very men whom he had once commanded.
Arnold was born in Connecticut and was a merchant operating ships on the Atlantic Ocean when the war began in 1775. He joined the growing army outside Boston and distinguished himself through acts of intelligence and bravery. His actions included the Capture of Fort Ticonderoga in 1775, defensive and delaying tactics at the Battle of Valcour Island on Lake Champlain in 1776 which allowed American forces time to prepare New York's defenses, the Battle of Ridgefield, Connecticut (after which he was promoted to major general), operations in relief of the Siege of Fort Stanwix, and key actions during the pivotal Battles of Saratoga in 1777, in which he suffered leg injuries that halted his combat career for several years.
Arnold repeatedly claimed that he was passed over for promotion by the Continental Congress, while other officers obtained credit for some of his accomplishments.[4] Others in his military and political circles brought charges against him of corruption or other malfeasance, but most often he was acquitted in formal inquiries. Congress investigated his accounts, however, and concluded that he was indebted to Congress, and he borrowed heavily to maintain a lavish lifestyle.
Arnold mingled with Loyalist sympathizers in Philadelphia and married into one such family by marrying Peggy Shippen. She was a close friend of British Major John André and kept in contact with him when he became head of the British espionage system in New York. Many historians point to her as facilitating Arnold's plans to switch sides; he opened secret negotiations with André, and Peggy relayed the messages. The British promised £20,000 for the capture of West Point, a major American stronghold; Washington greatly admired Arnold and gave him command of that fort in July 1780. His scheme was to surrender the fort to the British, but it was exposed in September 1780 when Patriot militia captured André carrying papers which revealed the plot. Arnold escaped and André was hanged.
Arnold received a commission as a brigadier general in the British Army, an annual pension of £360, and a lump sum of over £6,000. He led British forces in the Raid of Richmond and nearby areas, and they burned much of New London, Connecticut, to the ground and slaughtered surrendering forces after the Battle of Groton Heights—just a few miles downriver from the town where he had grown up. In the winter of 1782, he and Peggy moved to London, England. He was well received by King George III and the Tories but frowned upon by the Whigs and most Army officers. In 1787, he moved to Canada to a merchant business with his sons Richard and Henry. He was extremely unpopular there and returned to London permanently in 1791.

Prison reform has had a long history in the United States, beginning with the construction of the nation's first prisons. From the time of the earliest prisons in the United States, reformers have struggled with the problem of how to punish criminals while also preserving their humanity; how to protect the public while also allowing prisoners to re-enter society after their sentences end; and how to satisfy crime victims' desire for justice and revenge while also giving convicts a second chance to live freely and abide by the law. Although experts have long agreed that many criminals should be punished by imprisonment, they have differing ideas about which crimes merit imprisonment, what length sentences should be, and how inmates should be treated.most like this answer is false

The evidence for natural selection, he asserts in a letter is “(i) On its being a vera causa, from the struggle for existence; and the certain geological fact that species do somehow change.

In the United States, the Electoral College is a group that officially elects the president and vice-president. Option D is correct.

The President and Vice President are chosen by the States, which also include the District of Columbia only for this procedure.
Further a group chosen by the states to choose the president and vice president, with the number of electors from each state being equal to the number of senators and representatives from that state in Congress.
Therefore Electoral College was included in the Constitution, in part, as a compromise between the presidential election by vote in Congress and the presidential election by popular vote of eligible residents.
