Question
when anthropologists distinguished between culture and cultures, they were distinguishing between ____ and ____. different traditions of learned behavior / the ability to learn and create sets of behaviors and ideas a defining attribute of human beings / ways of life of specific groups of people the fine arts / local traditions of human beings the genetic programming that sets humans apart from other animals / the ways in which that programming works in specific places
Anthropologists view "Culture" (with a capital C) as a defining attribute of human beings, representing the general capacity for culture. "Cultures" (with a lowercase c) refer to the specific ways of life of particular groups of people. The other options do not accurately capture this distinction. For example, the first option reverses the concepts. The third option is too narrow as "Culture" in anthropology is not just about fine arts. The fourth option is incorrect as it refers to genetic programming which is not the basis of the Culture - cultures distinction in anthropology.
