- Importing Agriculture: This option is the correct answer, as while the Crusades did contribute to many other factors ending the Middle Ages, the specific concept of "importing agriculture" is not typically highlighted as a significant contribution.
Question 41: Which of the following is not a shared belief of Hindus and Buddhists?
- Enlightenment through meditation: This would be the correct answer, as while both religions value meditation, the concept of enlightenment is more distinctly defined within Buddhism, whereas Hinduism focuses on different paths to spiritual realization, which may not emphasize meditation as directly.
