Answer 4

As for #5, it is always best to have ONE focal point. I believe the answer here is b. rhythm

12. I believe this d. Ife because their sculpture is so life like.

14. This is not a good question unless by "parchment" the amatl (made from pounded bark) would count and then the answer would be a. Aztecs.

16. In my opinion, none of these would fit for "followers" who are people and not things. The first 3 have to do with Buddha but the 4th is Hindu.

16.

Answer 5

I don't think any of the answers are right on 16. I looked up each in the dictionary.

Answer 6

That's what I was thinking about #16. I guess I'll have to contact my teacher about it.
