Answer 1

The differences in the economic development of the Mid-Atlantic, New England, and Southern colonies can BEST be attributed to the:

geographic conditions there.

Geographic conditions played a significant role in shaping the economies of these regions, with the Mid-Atlantic colonies having fertile soil for agriculture, New England relying more on trade and fishing due to its harsher climate, and the Southern colonies developing large plantations due to their warm climate and longer growing seasons.
