The term “iron age” came into use because of the hittite civilization. the most important way in which the hittites used iron was in making weapons. the use of iron weapons drastically changed warfare and brought the hittites great success. based on the passage, technological advancements allowed the hittites to conquer other kingdoms and their empire. fill in the a. divide b. expand c. protect

Pretty sure it is C protect because they talk about how they made weapons of iron to protect themselves.

Explanation:

if interdependence implies a two-way dependence, and if each partner is equally dependent on the other for success, then there is an equal commitment to the making the partnership successful. the advantage is sustainability of the relationship, the disadvantage is that decisions are "democratic" and therefore may take longer to reach and more likely to be a compromise (which is not always the best solution). as the interdependence moves away from equality, the decisions become more influenced by the more independent partner. in the extreme the relationship becomes more dictatorial and more like "master-slave". generally the relationship has less commitment in both directions and is more likely to be temporary.

if one generalizes (and one shouldn't), equity partnerships, which is probably what is implied by interdependence, can be slow to progress or change but durable. the extreme alternative, independent-dependent partnerships tend to be efficient but more fragile.

hope this but you will have to site your own evidence. : )
