a. true
b. false

True. Corn is the most profitable commodity in Virginia. Though corn is plant that evolved in Mexico, English settlers found out that it was a key food source for Native Americans in Virginia. They traded this food source with other commodities and eventually resulted to gaining profits for trade. They generally used up what the Native Americans tilled in their soil in Virginia for their own gains.
