Answer:

According to one estimate, stands of century-old forest now account for only 7% of forest cover in the United States (USDA-FS 2000). Since 1600, 90% of the virgin forests that once covered much of the lower 48 states have been cleared away.

Explanation:

Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, Washington

The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie forest is located in the Cascade mountain range in Washington state and is home to 644,000 acres of old-growth. Situated around an hour away from the Seattle metropolitan area, this forest is one of the most frequently visited in the country.

1: Because mostly all of the soil wasn't good for growing crops, especially near the ocean. Also, the early and long-lasting winters killed many crops quickly. Still, New England farmers often grew enough food to feed their families and maybe even help feed other families. The main kind of food New Englanders contributed to the economy was fish.

2:  The growing season was only about five months long.

3: The geography of the Southern Colonies featured tideland ideal for growing crops, hilly coastal plains, broad rivers for transportation, forests and swamp marshes.

In what ways did Mexico's pre-Columbian Indian heritage shape its culture today?
Alexxandr [17]
There are still many remnants of Mexico's pre-Columbian Indian heritage today. Many people have descent from the indigenous tribes who lived in modern-day Mexico before the Spanish Conquistadors arrived. There was lots of mixing between the Spanish and the indigenous. Although some Mexicans still practice their tribal religion, most have converted to Christianity, but implement indigenous traditional folkloric culture such as clothing and into their daily lives. Statues and monuments still remain in Mexico, reminding people of the way the indigenous used to live. Remnants of some indigenous words have been completely accepted into Spanish vocabulary and legends and stories are still passed down from parents to children.
