Exchanges were positive in some ways, but the exchange involved a lot more than just plants and technology. Animals were exchanged, and in some cases were harmful to the environment, as well as the diseases that were exchanged, which decimated (or worse) native populations.
As a result of Columbus's voyages to the New World, a biological pipeline between America and Europe opened up that had been apart since before humans appeared on earth. The lands had drifted apart that had once been connected. Some species of plants and animals flourished in both areas, and some did not. There were many new animals and plants in the Americas that Europeans had never seen. And, Europeans brought plants and animals to the New World that America had never seen. This includes viruses and other biological organisms. The new animals brought to America upset the ecology of the area. The people living in the Americas did not have resistance to many of the "germs" brought by the Europeans. Biologically, the Indians had not been exposed to measles, smallpox, whooping cough, chicken pox, and influenza. The effect of these diseases on the Americans was catastrophic. Bacteria and viruses killed more Native Americans than did Spanish swords. The Indians also gave to the Europeans, venereal disease. Medical historians disagree on the origins of syphilis, but it was first identified by physicians in 1493, in Cadiz, Spain, the port which Columbus returned to after his first voyage.
The Colombian Exchange was also a cultural exchange. New agricultural developments were traded, economic activity and opportunities opened up between the New and Old Worlds, and new ideas were exchanged.
Adversely. They lost their land and their lives.
* people * diseases * foods * animals In new places.
The Columbian Exchange was the widespread trading of materials between the Americas and Afro-European hemispheres following the voyage of Christopher Columbus in 1492. One of the main results of this exchange was the migration of people to the Americas from Europe and Africa.

Corn and potatoes, two nutrient rich foods which grow in many climates and soils saved many Europeans from starving.
Both Moses and Hammurabi gave their people a set of laws to guide their lives. Moses gave the Israelites the Ten Commandments while Hammurabi gave his people 282 laws known as the Code of Hammurabi.
well Columbus and other Europeans brought diseases killing the people.
Adversely. They lost their land and their lives.

The Columbian Exchange was the widespread trading of materials between the Americas and Afro-European hemispheres following the voyage of Christopher Columbus in 1492. One of the main results of this exchange was the migration of people to the Americas from Europe and Africa.
The transfer of new products and ideas encouraged economic growth
New types of food helped many Europeans live better lives
The exchange that Columbian did was horrible. It just about affected everyone with destructive diseases and depopulated many cultures.On the other hand: Before the Columbian Exchange, there were no oranges in Florida, no bananas in Ecuador, no paprikain Hungary, no potatoes in Ireland, no coffee in Colombia, no pineapples in Hawaii, no rubber treesin Africa, no chili peppers in Thailand, no tomatoes in Italy, and no chocolate in Switzerland.
Which of these was a result of the Colombian Exchange
the Colombian exchange affected the Europe because potatoes is an easy crop to grow, that doesn't need much water and care, Ireland was helped by this in their great depression. potatoes also tripled the population and saved many people's lives :) :) The columbian exchange affected Europe in many ways. One way, Europe transferred germs to americas spreading disease. Also many American crops became part of european diet. The two that had an impact were potatoes and corn. They help feed Europeans without this exchange a lot more would've gone hungry.
