Once civilizations could grow excess food thousands of years ago, people in those societies soon learned to
a) make weapons to attack their rivals.
b) create religions with specific rules.
c) specialize in specific forms of labor.
d) build ships to begin exploring the world.

C)

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that people in those societies soon learned to specialize in specific forms of labor. This can be said because before there was excess food everyone in the society was a hunter or farmer and needed to find food. Once they had excess food the people needed other resources in which they started to specialize in specific forms of labor, in order to gather those resources.

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
