The correct answer is B. New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey

Step-by-step explanation:

After the first arrival of English settlers in the 17th century thirteen colonies were created in the U.S. territory this included South Carolina, New York, North Carolina, Virginia, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Rhode Island, among others. Additionally, these colonies had different features and the economy of each was different, in the case of the Middle colonies that included New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey these colonies depended on trade especially fur trade and trade of products that grew in the colonies, this included tobacco, wheat, barley and rye that thrived due to the weather and geography in the zone and were used by the colonist for their economic benefit. Therefore, the colonies that mainly benefited from exporting wheat and flour were New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.
