Answer 1

Answer: D. Salt

Step-by-step explanation:

Zone 2 has a large amount of ocean in it and ocean water is salty which means that it can be harnessed to produce salt. Zone 2 therefore was most probably a major producer of salt.

This goes hand in hand with actual statistics today because a major country in Zone 2 is India and they are currently the world's third largest salt producers.
