Although Columbus was not the first person to travel to the Americas his "discovery" of the New World marked the beginning of European interest and subsequent emigration, settlement and conquest. Before that the Native Americans had been living their traditional lifestyle for thousands of years. You would need to research the Columbian exchange in books or on the Internet to answer this question fully. I think you have left it too late to get good grades on this. It is no good putting off the difficult work until the last minute.
