The Columbian Exchange

Background Information
When Europeans reached the Americas in the fifteenth century, they began a circular exchange that had lasting effects. Many animals found in Europe did not exist in the Americas. The reverse was also true. Llamas were the only large domesticated animals used to carry goods in the Americas. A llama is small compared to a cow or horse, however, and can only carry about 200 pounds. Europeans gradually brought pigs, cattle, goats, and sheep, as well as horses, to the Americas, Native Americans were terrified of horses because they were so large. However, they soon learned how much work horses could do that humans had done before. Unfortunately, the Europeans also accidentally brought deadly human diseases to the Americas. With the Spanish came smallpox, malaria, measles, bubonic plague, typhoid, yellow fever, and cholera. Millions of Native Americans died from the resulting epidemics. The greatest economic benefit for the Americas and the rest of the world came from the foods exchanged between them. Corn, potatoes, manioc, peanuts, tomatoes, squash, pineapples. papaya, and avocados were crops from the Americas. Rice, wheat, barley. oats, rye. nips, onions. cabbage, lettuce, peaches, pears, and sugar were products of other continents. Today the exchange is so complete that corn or maize is the staple crop of some African peoples. Wheat from Europe is a major output of American farms and countries as far south as Argentina. Rice is mass-produced in Brazil. The exchange continues even today, although it is no longer called the Columbian Exchange. Some of the effects of this exchange have been harmful. Killer bees from Africa have severely impacted the bee industry in the Americas. Zebra mussels came from Europe and today cover the bodies of ships in the Americas. Modern technology has increased the speed of such exchanges and spread them across the planet. ​

By 1860, the number of miles of railroad tracks throughout the United States had risen to 3,000. 30,000. 300,000. 3 million.
katrin [286]
I would say 30,000 cause all the next developments were from the 1860's forward and that is when huge growth happened, after 1860.

Which best identifies the event that renews hope in the secret annex
konstantin123 [22]

The correct answer is the D-day.

The Secret Annex was the space, at the back of a Dutch canal house in Amsterdam, where Anne Frank and her family hid for years during the Nazi occupation, together with another Jewish family.

Hope was brought by the information which arrived there about the D-day, when the Normandy landings took place, which meant the arrival of the Allied forces to the occupied French territory. It happened on June, 1944. It was a crucial military operation in the defeat of the Nazis in mainland Europe.

Anne and the rest of the people hidden were arrested by the Nazis in August 1944 and sent to concentration camps where all died, except Anne's father, Otto Frank. <em>Therefore the answer option which mentions the end of the Nazi occupation in Amsterdam cannot be true. </em>

<em>Secondly, there was no one called Eli in the annex. The event with the burglars was totally different. They were scared because they thought the burglars might see them, but in the end that did not happen. </em>
