The correct answer is D) both A and B.

The options that best describes the location of the Fertile Crescent are the following: the Fertile Crescent begins at the Persian Gulf and continues northwest to the Mediterranean Sea and the Fertile Crescent includes both the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

It was in this Fertile Crescent where the Sumerian civilization grew and developed. The Sumerians were the oldest civilization on Earth.
