Answer:

The Americas, was, without a doubt, more affected than Afro-Eurasia by the Columbian Exchange.

In the Americas, the Columbian Exchange caused, indirectly, the death of up to 90% of the Native American population, due to the spread of diseases from Afro-Eurasia for which the Native Americans had no antibodies.

It also caused the development of new states, that were dominated by Europeans and their descendats: the Spanish viceroyalties, Portugese Brazil, the English, French, and Dutch Colonies in North America and the Caribbean.

Step-by-step explanation:

horses, diseases, and sugar had the longest-term effect because we still use horses today, we have vaccines for diseases, and every single American even diabetic has sugar included in their diets.
