Margaret Conkey and Janet Spector pointed out which of the following biases in archaeology?
 
  a. The fact that plant remains are rarely preserved at archaeological sites while animal bones and stone tools are often abundant, leading archaeologists to overestimate the importance of meat in prehistoric diets.
  b. The fact that when archaeologists only study projectile points and ignore associated debitage, or debris, from the manufacture of stone tools, they end up with a biased view of prehistoric technological organization.
  c. The fact that archaeologists tend to impose the current political organization of their culture onto prehistoric political organizations without sufficient data to justify their inferences.
  d. The fact that archaeologists once viewed the world largely in terms of men's activities and perceptions, while the contributions of women were downplayed; this view was projected into prehistory, resulting in a strong androcentric bias in archaeology.
  e. the fact that natural processes work on remains, archaeologists need to consider all dimensions of artifact use and reuse when interpreting the archaeological record.
