To accurately place the geographic origins of silk, spices, cotton, and porcelain on the map, the following origins should be used:

  • Silk: China
  • Spices: India (as well as regions in Southeast Asia)
  • Cotton: India and Persia (and also Egypt, particularly for the Nile Basin)
  • Porcelain: China (though porcelain was also produced in limited quantities elsewhere, China is the most recognized origin)

Given these points, the description of the geographic origins that you should select is:

  • Silk: China
  • Spices: India
  • Cotton: India and Persia
  • Porcelain: China

This aligns with traditional historical views of these goods' origins. Ensure that you select the response that matches this information. If one of the options states something like "Silk: China, Spices: India, Cotton: India and Persia, Porcelain: China," that would be the correct choice.
