During the Songhai Empire, the Songhai people settled along Niger River MAINLY because the river https://gyazo.com/ab2a76184b1131ad63df7f19784988fe A) gave them fresh water to irrigate crops. B) gave them access to the North Atlantic Ocean. C) was a place where people could mine for gold. D) enabled them to easily transport goods to trade.

Well, judging from the image you can see that the river intersects through the entire Empire. Irrigating crops would be incorrect because irrigation systems wouldn't settle in the heart of the Empire. The river doesn't cut through to the ocean. The Songhai empire was based on gold mining quarries, not through waterworks. Hence, the correct answer would be D as the river gave the Empire a means for transporting the gold and food.
