AI-generated practice question — model-generated for extra practice, not a previous-year CBSE board question.
Apart from goods, travellers and traders carried ideas/values/religions (e.g., Buddhism, Islam spread via silk routes) and germs/diseases across the world in early history.
The passage explicitly lists what travellers carried: "goods, money, values, skills, ideas, inventions, and even germs and diseases." The question asks for TWO things apart from goods, so pick any two from the remaining list. Mentioning a supporting example (like Buddhism or disease spread) shows understanding and is exam-appropriate. Both points together earn the 1 mark.
