Answer:

b.) The diverse geography of the colonies encouraged different economic pursuits.

Step-by-step explanation:

The geography realities of colonies determine their social and economic structure. Like the northern colonies were rich in natural resources have mountains and hills, rocky soil and harsh climate in winters which allow a short growing season, this developed them into small towns and small manufacturing units. On the other hand middle colonies developed into commercial centers and southern colonies known for agricultural produce.
