b. Cuba - The country of Cuba traces its roots in the production of sugar under the Spanish rule. It has the largest sugar industry in the world for which it is known as the 'Sugar Bowl 'of the world. Thus, it is the correct answer.
c. U. S. A. - The United State of America is the largest country of the continent of North America. Thus, it is not a correct answer.
