b. Discuss the impacet on both of the areas. Use specific examples.
a. What things and ideas moved from Europe to the New World? What ideas and things moved from the New World to Europe?
b. What changed in both areas?
okay thank you soo much! i think i understand a. but not b. can you give me a little more help with b please?
Some of the impacts were that Europeans began sending more ships and people to the New World. They brought back unusual plants and animals. The New World people received mostly strange diseases and oppression. Firearms and horses were also new to the native Americans

If you substitute "influence" for "impact," you might have a better understand of b.
What was the intial reason for Columbus’s journey to the new world
Of course! I'm here to help. Let's break down your question into two parts:
a. To identify the resulting convergence of cultures and items that were introduced to the old and new world, you can start by researching the effects of Columbus's journey to the Americas in the 15th century. Here are a few steps to help you find the information you need:
1. Start by researching Columbus's voyages to the Americas. Look for reputable sources such as history books, academic journals, or reliable websites dedicated to history.
2. Pay attention to the accounts, records, and historical evidence that describe the encounters between different cultures during Columbus's voyages.
3. Look for specific items or cultural practices that were introduced to both the old and new world. This could include things like new crops, animals, diseases, languages, technologies, or cultural customs.
b. To discuss the impact on both of the areas, you need to analyze and provide specific examples of how Columbus's journey affected the old and new world. Here's how you can approach this:
1. Divide your discussion into two sections: the impact on the old world (Europe) and the impact on the new world (the Americas).
2. Research the historical consequences of Columbus's journey and take notes on how it affected both areas.
3. For each section, provide specific examples to support your discussion. For example, in the old world, you can talk about the introduction of new crops like potatoes and tomatoes, the spread of diseases like smallpox, or the exchange of ideas and knowledge.
4. Similarly, in the new world, discuss the impact on indigenous cultures, the introduction of new technologies like firearms, the colonization process, or the exchange of goods.
Remember, it's essential to consult reliable sources and cite your references properly to support your statements. Good luck with your research!
