The Southern colonies were able to build a plantation system because they A. the climate was too cold for growing cash crops.
B. wealthy farmers bought huge amounts of land.
C. slavery was outlawed in all English colonies.
D. other colonies refused to buy Southern goods.

The answer is B

Explanation:

The south colonies were able to build a plantation system because wealthy farmers bought huge amounts of land. If the climates were too cold things like cotton and tobacco would not be able to grow. If slavery was outlawed in all English colonies it would probably not have been widespread throughout the south of America. If other colonies refused to buy Southern goods there would not be funds to build large plantations to harvest cash crops.

the correct answer option is: weapons.

explanation:

tensions rose as the two opposing superpowers competed for 'weapons'.

referring to the cold war (1945-1991), the two superpowers, usa and ussr, experienced a phase of struggle and conflict with each other. these two superpowers considered each other as a threat to their survival and thus opted for policies to strengthen their positions.

the two superpowers never went to war with each other directly but competed for weapons to preserve their positions.
