Explanation:

Question 1: What knowledge did Bantu - speaking peoples bring with them as they migrated?

Bantu - speaking peoples brought agricultural knowledge (such as farming techniques for growing crops like yams and bananas), iron - working technology (which was used to make tools and weapons), and also their language and cultural practices related to social organization as they migrated. Their agricultural knowledge helped in settling new areas and cultivating food, while iron - working improved their ability to clear land, hunt, and defend themselves.

The region immediately south of the Sahara is the Sahel. The Sahel is a semi - arid region that acts as a transition zone between the arid Sahara Desert to the north and the more humid savannas to the south.

The savanna climate zone in Africa is described as fertile grasslands. Savannas have a distinct wet and dry season, with grasses being the dominant vegetation, and the soil is fertile enough to support the growth of these grasses and also some scattered trees.

Answer:

Agricultural knowledge (e.g., crop farming), iron - working technology, and cultural/language - related practices.
