Well, eight graders 100 years ago are now mostly today's grannies and grandpas. they were taught grammar for 1 hour, arithmetic for 1.25 hours, their U.S. history for 45 minutes, Orthography for 1 hour, geography. in total this will take 4 hours and 10 minutes for 1 school day. the 8th-grade year is 1 year. and the school (work) for an eighth-grader at that time was very difficult with the subjects. for one, in today we have only taken grammar (ELA), arithmetic,(MATH) U.S. history, Geography(SOCIAL STUDIES) and we have sadly left out Orthography or it is something I can't relate it to.

Which statement describes an effect of the Columbian Exchange?
jok3333 [9.3K]

The Columbian Exchange also had positive and negative effects. The positive side was the exchange of technology in agriculture, for example, which increased crop yields and food production in favor of Native Americans and in favor of Europeans. One of the negative effects was certainly the appearance of many diseases that Europeans transferred to the American continent. Native Americans first faced such illnesses, were non-resistant to them, and many of them died.

The correct answer according to the options offered is: A.
