C) Brought seeds to help the colonists and taught them how to grow corn, beans, and pumpkins. D) Taught colonists how to grow tobacco to sell for a profit.

Answer 1

C) Brought seeds to help the colonists and taught them how to grow corn, beans, and pumpkins.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Wampanoag Indians were one of the first inhabitants of the Plymouth colony and they were very significant in the area because they ensured that they brought seeds to help the colonists and taught them how to grow corn, beans, and pumpkins.

This was a result of the colonists having difficulties getting food as a result of a lack of knowledge of the terrain. The Wampanoag Indians did this favour to enable the colonists survive and also in exchange for gifts such as ornaments.
