Both Northeast and Southeast Indigenous groups shared the following aspects of life:

- **Growing corn, beans, and squash**: Many Indigenous groups in both regions practiced agriculture, particularly the cultivation of these three crops, known as the "Three Sisters."

- **Practicing animism**: Many Indigenous cultures across North America, including those in the Northeast and Southeast, held animistic beliefs, viewing the natural world as alive and imbued with spirit.

The other options do not apply universally to both regions:

- **Living in longhouses**: This is typically associated with Northeastern Indigenous groups, particularly the Iroquois. Southeast Indigenous groups often had different types of dwellings.

- **Moving from place to place throughout the year**: While some groups in both regions were nomadic or semi-nomadic, this was more characteristic of certain tribes or specific communities rather than a shared aspect across all groups in both regions.

Thus, the correct shared aspects are **growing corn, beans, and squash** and **practicing animism**.
