B) Corn, Squash and Beans is the correct answer.

They used to dwell in the forests hence they were called Eastern woodland Indians. Their clothing, shelter and food came from the forests and their villages were found near lake or stream, and constructed wigwams and longhouses. Mound builders, Cherokee and Iroquois are the three Woodland tribes.
