The accurate statement is:
These routes facilitated culture along with trade, as religion, art, languages, and other cultural elements also traveled along the routes.
This reflects the historical reality that trade routes like the trans-Saharan and Indian Ocean routes were vital conduits for not only goods but also cultural exchange, including religions, art forms, languages, and other cultural practices.

The correct example of a secondary source a historian could use to study Genghis Khan is:
a biography about Genghis Khan.
This is because a biography represents an interpretation and analysis of Genghis Khan's life written by a later author, making it a secondary source. The other options, such as descriptions by Marco Polo, Ibn al-Athir, and stories from The Secret History of the Mongols, are primary sources as they originate from individuals who were contemporaneous to or directly related to the events being described.
The correct example of a secondary source a historian might use in a study of the negative effects of the Mongolian Empire on Europe is:
a letter written by English philosopher Roger Bacon.
This letter represents an analysis or interpretation made by a later figure, which could discuss the consequences of the Mongolian Empire based on available knowledge at the time. The other options provided (the painting, the excerpt from Marco Polo, and the eyewitness account by Giovanni da Pian del Carpine) are primary sources, as they come directly from individuals who experienced or witnessed the events being described.
The statement that best explains how Japan was organized politically during the medieval period is:
A network of warriors governed Japan at all levels, including the shogun, who was more powerful than the emperor.
During the medieval period in Japan, particularly during the Kamakura and Muromachi periods, real political power was held by the shogun and the samurai class, while the emperor held a more symbolic and ceremonial role. The shogun was the de facto ruler, establishing a feudal system where loyalty and service among the samurai were paramount.
