Use the following chart summarizing the Columbian Exchange to answer the question:


Europe and Africa to Americas Americas and Europe to Africa
Plants coffee, sugar cane, bananas, melons, olives, barley, wheat, oats, rice, ragweed, bluegrass, dandelions, daisies, clover maize (corn), potatoes, sweet potatoes, peanuts, squash, pumpkins, tomatoes, peppers, papaya, guava, avocado, pineapple, manioc, cacao, chicle, tobacco
Animals cattle, chickens, horses, goats, sheep, pigs llamas, alpacas, turkeys, guinea pigs
Humans African slaves, European merchants, officials, priests, and settlers few
Diseases smallpox, yellow fever, malaria, measles, chicken pox, influenza, common cold syphilis


What does the type of animals and plants brought to the New World demonstrate about the needs of Pre-columbian civilizations?
Pre-Columbian civilizations did not have access to egg-laying animals so Europeans brought them.
Pre-Columbian civilizations did not practice small-scale farming so Europeans brought them.
Pre-Columbian civilizations had an abundance of animals for food, but Europeans also wanted to continue using their traditional animals for food.
Pre-Columbian civilizations had few animals suitable for raising and slaughtering to use for meat.

Answer 5

"Trade in Asian goods and fabrics had a profound effect on the economic, political, diplomatic and social spheres in Europe. European consumption patterns and social habits were increasingly shaped by new products coming over from Asia, which came into vogue: spices, tea, tulips, fine printed muslins and calicoes, silk garments and accessories such as pyjamas, shawls or fans, wallpaper, furniture in exotic and lacquered woods, fine blue porcelains, Oriental gardening, later opium. These expensive luxury goods especially adorned aristocrats but also the bourgeois upstart and became status symbols. The European balance of trade was deeply affected by this growth in import from Asia."

I think the first one may be C, but I'm not completely sure. it's a little difficult to find specific information on it. maybe look back at your lesson, just to be sure.

Answer 7

I think it's B.

"The Florentine painter Giotto (1267?-1337), the most famous artist of the proto-Renaissance, made enormous advances in the technique of representing the human body realistically. His frescoes were said to have decorated cathedrals at Assisi, Rome, Padua, Florence and Naples, though there has been difficulty attributing such works with certainty."
