The most accurate description of the Columbian Exchange is the transfer of plants, animals, people, and diseases between hemispheres. This exchange significantly impacted the agricultural practices, populations, and ecosystems of both the Old World (Europe, Asia, and Africa) and the New World (the Americas) following Columbus's voyages.
