To answer the question "Demographers are scientists who study," we can eliminate options A, B, and D and be left with option C, "human populations." To arrive at this answer, we can break down the word "demographer" to "demo," meaning people or population, and "grapher," meaning a person who studies or analyzes. By combining these two parts, we can infer that demographers are scientists who study human populations.
For the second question, "In any particular culture, an idea or way of doing things that is common to the culture is called a," we can eliminate options A, B, and D and be left with option C, "cultural trait." To determine this answer, we can analyze the definitions of the other options. A cultural landscape refers to the visible characteristics of an area resulting from human activity, such as buildings or monuments. Culture is a broader term encompassing a group's beliefs, customs, and practices. A cultural norm refers to the socially accepted behavior or rule within a given culture. Thus, the most fitting term for an idea or way of doing things common to a specific culture is a "cultural trait."
