When English settlers came to Jamestown, the living conditions were very poor. By the time 1609 had come around, they had faced a harsh winter called "the starving time".

Because the winter was so harsh, people were getting sick and dying off at a very fast rate. Only about 1/3 of the settlers survived that winter, and it was rumored that the starving time was so bad that the settlers turned to eating some of the animals, such as the dogs to stay alive.

Because the people were eventually reinforced with supplies and more settlers, the colony of Jamestown was able to persevere and keep going considering they lost a significant amount of their original settlers. The tobacco crop and more settlers coming on ships in the next few years is what was able to keep Jamestown thriving.

This helped make it the first permanent settlement in North America, unlike the Lost Colony of Roanoke, Virginia, where all the settlers had vanished in the late 1500s.

Which claim is not defensible?

Lostsunrise [7]

<span>"The world would be better off if political boundaries didn't exist" is an indefensible claim. The others can be proven or at least debated over because at some point in time all of them have true and false. For instance, the majority of congress and the President have been from the same political party. Also, the majority of congress and the President have NOT been from the same political party. Therefore, you can compare the difference between true and false. Political boundaries have always existed. As a result, you cannot comfortably compare it to anything else.</span>

GuDViN [60]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include image number 2. However, doing some research we can say the following.

The image illustrates the spread of scientific knowledge in the period before 1450 in that it shows the Muslim presence in different bedrooms where sick lies on the bed. The image illustrates that Arab people that practiced Islam also had medical knowledge resulted from the many exchanges with other cultures and nations. Scientific research in the Arab world was more advanced and quickly spread all over other regions in the Middle East, North Africa, and some eastern European regions.
