All of the following were exported to Europe from the Americas as part of the Columbian Exchange EXCEPT:
  1. Corn
  2. Wheat
  3. Cocoa
  4. Rubber
  5. Peanuts
Explanation
Answer: B - Wheat was not exported from the Americas; instead, the Europeans introduced it to the New World. Wheat would become a staple crop of the Middle Colonies in British America.
