Answer: corn, potatoes, chocolate, tomatoes
Explanation:
The Columbian exchange, also known as the Columbian interchange, was the extensive exchange of goods between the New World (the Americas), in the Western Hemisphere, and the Old World (Afro-Eurasia), in the Eastern Hemisphere, in the late 15th and subsequent centuries. This exchange included plants, animals, precious metals, commodities, culture, human populations, technology, diseases, and ideas.
It is associated with the colonisation of Europe and the expansion of trade after Christopher Columbus' 1492 expedition and bears his name.
Some of the interactions were deliberate; others were unintentional or unplanned.
From the 15th century onward, communicable diseases from the Old World caused an 80 to 95 percent decline in the population of Indigenous peoples in the Americas, with the Caribbean suffering the most.
