1. On the social pyramid, outline and label the level that represents priests.
Answer:
Pharaoh, Government officials, Priests, Scribes, Artisans, Peasants.
Explanation:
I wrote the answers going from top to bottom
The government officials, nobles, and priests were positioned below the pharaoh at the pinnacle of the social pyramid. The middle class was found in the fourth level, while the scribes and soldiers made up the third. The lowest socioeconomic class, which was represented by slaves, was peasants, who made up the fifth rung of society.
Powerful nobles and priests occupied the position immediately below the pharaoh. Government jobs were only available to the nobility, who benefited from the pharaoh's tribute payments. For making the gods happy, priests were in charge. An important aspect of ancient Egyptian civilization was religion, and each village had its own god.

what two potential outcomes did the committee see in Russia's near future?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Unfortunately, you did not include any reference, text, excerpt, or context to help you answer this question.
What is the committee you are referring to? At what time in history? Any reference that can help us?
However, doing some research we can comment on the following.
Probably, you are referring to the Committee in the US Congress that oversaw the foreign relations with Russia.
If that is the case, then we can say that the two potential outcomes did the committee see in Russia's near future was tensions in the relationship due to major differences in the production of weapons and missiles (long-range and short-range), and the intervention of Russia in other countries as was the case of Ukraine or the Russian support of Iran.
Since the times of the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States have had severe conflicts and differences that had produced tense moments. They competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread/containment of Communism.
The Cold War days are long gone, however, even to this day, Russia and the United States are still being the biggest rivals.
