2. **Many people traveled by ship because water routes were well known at the time.**
3. **Merchants, more than anyone else, undertook long-distance travel.**
4. **Travelers used a variety of pack animals, including camels, horses, and yaks.**
Please note that the statement about merchants traveling by sea from Italy to China through the Suez Canal is incorrect.
