The answer is:

  1. The answer is d: 6,000 years ago. Explanation: The transformation of settlements in Mesopotamia into more complex societies, often considered the beginning of civilization, occurred around 6,000 years ago, approximately 4000 BCE.

  2. The answer is c: Assyrian Empire. Explanation: After the Akkadian Empire, which was one of the earliest empires in Mesopotamia, the Assyrian Empire emerged as a significant power in the region. The Roman Empire and Ottoman Empire were not based in Mesopotamia, and the Persian Empire, while influential, emerged later and was centered in what is now Iran.

  3. The answer is not provided in the options given. Explanation: The Babylonians developed a mathematical system based on base 60, also known as the sexagesimal system. This system is not listed among the provided options (Base 10 or Base 20). The sexagesimal system is still used today in measuring time (60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour) and angles (360 degrees in a circle).
