ies developed in distinct regional patterns, shaped in large part by geography

Explanation:

The triangular trade involved the exchange of goods between Europe, Africa, and the Americas. In the colonies, it led to an increase in the production of cash - crops for export, integrating colonial farming into global trade networks. This affected land use as more land was dedicated to growing export - oriented crops. The other options are incorrect as the triangular trade increased British interest in colonial trade, did not shift focus from farming to religion, and did not promote isolation or self - sufficient farming.

Answer:

It increased crop exports and linked farming to global trade.
