What unit of West African society does this diagram illustrate? (1 point) Responses a village a village a caste a caste a clan a clan an empire an empire
The diagram does not provide enough information to determine the specific unit of West African society illustrated.
Based on the given options, the unit of West African society that the diagram illustrates is a clan.
To determine the unit of West African society represented in the given diagram, we need to analyze the options provided and choose the most appropriate one.
First, let's define each option:
1. A village: A small community of people living together in a specific area.
2. A caste: A rigid social group into which people are born and cannot change.
3. A clan: A group of families claiming a common ancestor, often forming a larger social group.
4. An empire: A large political unit, typically encompassing multiple territories and ruled by a central authority.
Looking at the options given, we see that the word "an" appears before each option, suggesting that the options are singular. Considering this, we can eliminate the choices "villages" and "castes" since they are plural forms.
Now, we are left with two options: "a clan" and "an empire."
To make the final determination, we need to examine the diagram itself. Unfortunately, the diagram is not provided in the question. Consequently, without visual information, it is not possible to precisely identify the unit of West African society represented by the diagram.
