Answer:

When the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus inadvertently discovered the Americas, it became known as the New World.

In a series of activities which were mostly commercial in nature for the benefit of Europe, crops (such as sugar, tobacco, chocolate, and potatoes), animals (such as horses), European culture, human populations (both slaves and colonial masters), technology, diseases, and new ways of doing things were exchanged between the "New World" and the "Old World"

   

In order to make for smooth colonial administration between the African leaders and the Colonial masters, African leaders were bribed with textiles, rum and manufactured goods from Europe.

Slaves were transported from Africa to the Americas to work on plantations of sugar , tobacco and cotton which were then transported to Europe.  

This trade is what came to be referred to as the Columbian Exchange.  

Europe is said to have benefited more from the Colombian Trade, as there has been a huge shift of resources to Europe , especially gold and silver from the New World and other regions.

Traditional Chinese daughter role
N76 [4]

In China from very early times, men have been seen as the core of the family. The ancestors to whom a Shang or Zhou dynasty king made sacrifices were his patrilineal ancestors, that is, his ancestors linked exclusively through men (his father’s father, his father’s father’s father, and so on). When women enter the early historical record, it is often because they caused men problems. Some women schemed to advance their own sons when their husband had sons by several women. Women’s loyalties were often in question. In 697 BCE, for instance, the daughter of one of the most powerful ministers in the state of Zheng learned from her husband that the ruler had ordered him to kill her father. After her mother advised her that “All men are potential husbands, but you have only one father,” she told her father of the plot, and he promptly killed her husband. The ruler of Zheng placed the blame on the husband for foolishly confiding in his wife. Taken together, accounts of these sorts present a mixed picture of women and the problems they presented for men in the nobility. The women in their lives were capable of loyalty, courage, and devotion, but also of intrigue, manipulation, and selfishness.

Which statement is true?

Correct answer choice is :


<h2>D) Exhaustible resources are scarce</h2><h2 /><h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

An exhaustible source is a word that has come to be connected with a metal such as coal, oil or platinum which does not regenerate itself quickly in its natural setting. Any resource can be consumed and most resources are being replaced but for exhaustible resources, the speed of replenishment is very slow. Forests, fishing grounds, and durable land have and are being exhausted but are usually operated as natural resources other than exhaustible.
