a. it gains access to ideas that were developed outside the society.

b. it experiences a period of innovation and rapid economic
development.

c. it becomes more isolated from the international community.

Explanation:

Cultural diffusion is the spread of cultural beliefs and social activities from one group to another. So during cultural diffusion, a society gets exposed to ideas from outside its own group. Option A matches this definition. Option B: Cultural diffusion doesn't always guarantee rapid economic development. Option C: Isolation is the opposite of diffusion. Option D: Cultural diffusion doesn't lead to more autocratic systems; it's about sharing ideas, not restricting politics.

A. It gains access to ideas that were developed outside the society.
