Explanation:

Question 7

Based on scientific (anthropological, archaeological, genetic) evidence, the ancestors of modern humans (Homo sapiens) originated in Africa.

Rulers promoted sedentary agriculture because settled farmers had fixed locations, crops, and resources, making it easier to assess and collect taxes. Migratory hunter - gatherers were mobile and hard to tax. The other options are incorrect: better food selection for palaces was not the main reason, and promoting one - god religion is unrelated to agricultural expansion.

Imperial lifestyles across the world often included access to and display of exotic foods through banquets to show wealth, power, and status. Equal distribution is against the hierarchical nature of empires. Primitive religious practices focused on individuals are not characteristic of imperial lifestyles, and consumption of specific meats like beef and expensive lamb is not a universal imperial lifestyle trait.
