Answer 1

Answer:

The legend of the Aztec empire began with a vision that included a snake, an eagle, and a cactus.

Option [c] is correct.

Explanation:

According to Aztec legend, in 1323, the Mexica were shown a vision of an eagle perched on a prickly pear cactus, eating a snake. The vision indicated the location where they were to build their settlement. The Mexica founded Tenochtitlan on a small swampy island in Lake Texcoco, the inland lake of the Basin of Mexico.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cactus

Explanation:

• An eagle, a cactus, and snake appeared in the first vision that gave rise to the legend of the Aztec kingdom.
• The Mexica were allegedly granted a vision of an eagle sitting atop a snake-eating prickly pear cactus in 1323, according to an Aztec legend. The location of their encampment was provided by the vision. On a tiny island covered in swamps in Lake Texcoco, an interior lake in the Basin of Mexico, the Mexica established Tenochtitlan.
• The Aztecs were once a nomadic tribe, but in 1325 CE they started to establish permanent communities. One of their gods allegedly instructed them to dwell where they witnessed an eagle perched on a cactus and devouring a snake. They eventually discovered this sign after wandering for a hundred years.

Thus the correct option is C.
