Answer:

The chart above supports the idea that Europeans brought livestock such as cattle, chickens, horses, goats, sheep, and pigs to the Americas, while the Americas sent plants such as maize, potatoes, sweet potatoes, peanuts, and various fruits, as well as animals like llamas, alpacas, turkeys, and guinea pigs to Europe. It also suggests that the transatlantic slave trade brought many African slaves to the Americas, and European merchants, officials, priests, and settlers also made the journey. Additionally, it shows that diseases such as smallpox, yellow fever, malaria, measles, chicken pox, influenza, and the common cold were introduced to the Americas by Europeans, while syphilis was brought from the Americas to Europe.
