The New England colonies had rocky soil and a short growing season, which led to a focus on subsistence farming, fishing, and shipbuilding. The Middle colonies had fertile soil and a moderate climate, allowing for farming of cash crops like wheat and corn, as well as trade and manufacturing. The Southern colonies had a warm climate and rich soil, which made large-scale plantation agriculture, particularly of crops like tobacco and later cotton, the dominant industry.

How the natural resources and climate of mexico have helped to contribute to the level of development?

Natural resources and climate don't correlate with level of development. For example, Brazil in South America is five times the size of Mexico with plenty of agricultural and mineral resources; yet, it is in worse shape -- e.g. less development -- than Mexico. On the other hand, Japan which is the third largest economy in the world, has a colder climate and fewer resources than Mexico but has one of the highest living standards in the world.
