    Question 1:

    Answer: b) Many tribes became dependent on the items that the europeans were trading.

    While colonialism brought enormous conflict between colonists and Native tribes, they also cooperated to a large extent. One of the main examples is that of trade. Trade gave both the colonists and the Natives objects they could not themselves produce. Some tribes became very dependent on some items, such as guns, horses and textiles.

    Question 2:

    Answer: c) Horses.

    Different Indian tribes had different lifestyles, and they were affected to a different extent by new European items. However, in the case of Plains Indians, horses completely altered their way of living. Having gotten their first horses from Spanish settlers, they became outstanding horsemen. Horses also fitted their nomadic way of life, being very useful for hunting (in particular buffalo) and for moving across large territories.
