Answer:

1. Egypt: c. Hieroglyphs

2. Mesopotamia: a. Cuneiform

3. Indus Valley: b. Pictographs

Explanation:

Hieroglyphs were the characters that were used in the Ancient Egyptian writing system. These appeared around 3000 BCE, marking the beginning of the Egyptian civilization. Hieroglyphs were difficult to learn and represent. Therefore, they were only used by the high social classes.

Cuneiform is the type of writing invented by the Sumerians in the late fourth millennium BC. It consists of wedge-shaped marks on clay tablets. Finally, the pictographs of the Indus Valley civilization are a body of symbols that were used between 3500 and 1900 BCE. There is very little information on these symbols, which have not yet been deciphered.
