  B. According to Marcus and Fischer (1986), The cultures of world peoples need to be constantly rediscovered as these people reinvent them in changing historical circumstances.
  C. A more dynamic world system, with greater and faster movements of people across space, speeds up the process of evolution, making the study of genetic adaptations more difficult.
