A tropical climate is key to which economic activity in the lowlands of Central America and the Caribbean?

A. Commerce and manufacturing
B. Production of cash crops
C. Animal husbandry
D. Mining

Asked by Seewald362

Answer (2)

I'm pretty sure its b. cash crops because cash crops were really important to Central American/Caribbean economies (they were pretty much the only things that were exported), and those crops (ex. fruits/types of trees/etc) could only grow in a tropical climate.
