Which demonstrates how the Anasazi adapted to their hot, dry environment?

A. The Anasazi moved south where more water was available.

D. The Anasazi survived by hunting and gathering food.

A. The Anasazi moved south where more water was available.

Explanation:

The Anasazi people lived on the Four Corners region, a location where rain is scarce and irregular. To adapt to this mountain location, the Anasazi people used to migrate to other areas, looking for water. On the other hand, these people have progressively adapted irrigation techniques from Mexico, either extracting water from rivers or rainwater reservoirs. They built small dams, channels and reservoirs that prove a community organization.

The following demonstrates how the Anasazi adapted to their hot, dry environment:

A. The Anasazi moved south where more water was available.

Due to inconsistent summer rains and snow, water could be difficult to obtain resulting in droughts.

During the 13th Century an unknown event caused the Anasazi to move toward the Rio Grande and Little Colorado River.
