when asishma and her family moved to the united states from india, her family began to speak only english and celebrate traditional american holidays. this is an example of which of the following?

cultural assimilation

melting pot

cultural pluralism

none of the above

Explanation:

Cultural assimilation is the process where a minority group adopts the culture of the dominant group. Asishma's family, after moving to the US, started speaking only English (dominant language) and celebrating American holidays (dominant cultural practices), which fits assimilation. "Melting Pot" is a society concept, not an individual/group process. Cultural pluralism is about maintaining one's own culture while participating in the larger society, which is not the case here.

Answer:

A. Cultural assimilation
