Answer:

You can argue both ways, but here are a few reasons for each:

Benefit:

Introduced foreign crops and animals that hadn't been previously existing
Sparked an economy and trading routes between Europe and the Americas
Because of the introduction of cash crops to the Americans, the American agricultural industry was becoming a big part of the economy

Became a detriment:

Alongside the crops and animals being brought over, many diseases traveled and made their way into America, killing a generous amount of people
Malaria was one of the major diseases brought over
The Colombian Exchange was also bringing settlers into the Americas which pushed out the preexisting Native settlers; this led to many major conflicts down the road

red herring

Explanation:

Red herring is a noun that means: something, especially a sign / clue that is misleading / incorrect and that distracts from a really important / relevant issue. As can be seen in the example shown in the question above, where Ken, diverts from the subject and distracts Mike, so that Ken's morality is not the main topic of conversation.

The expression red herring, came about because, red herrings were old and fetid fish whose blood was used to distract the dogs from the actual location of the fish to other more distant locations. An alternative etymology points out that the meaning of this expression came from prisoners who escaped from the dogs in pursuit by throwing the spicy fish to lose them.

Very few societies base access to social rewards and resources on race or ethnicity. Please select the best answer from the choi

Anna71 [15]

The correct answer is false.

It is false that very few societies base access to social rewards and resources on race or ethnicity.

In society, race and ethnicity play a very important role to be accepted. In many places of the world, a minority of rich people establish dominance over the majority of people that are poor or belong to lower social classes. Let's remember that ethnicity refers to the cultural characteristics that are relevant and distinguish one group over the others. The race also plays a definitive role. Minorities such as blacks, Native American Indians, or Immigrants have suffered to claim their rights over the years.
