1Anthropology is best defined as the systematic study of:
A.Only the chemistry of non-living materials
B.Humankind in biological, cultural, social, and historical dimensions
C.Only plant and animal classification
D.Only modern stock markets and trade policy
Explanation: Anthropology is the holistic study of human beings—their biology, culture, society, language, and past—across time and space.
2The word 'anthropology' is derived from Greek roots that mean:
A.Study of ancient rocks only
B.Study of government laws only
C.Study of society only
D.Study of human beings
Explanation: Anthropos means human and logos means study/discourse, so anthropology literally means the study of human beings.

A.Ignoring biology when studying culture
B.Looking at biological, cultural, social, and historical aspects of human life together
C.Studying only urban markets and nothing else
D.Studying only one ritual in isolation forever

4Which of the following is a major branch of anthropology?
A.Astronomy
B.Physical (biological) anthropology
C.Mechanical engineering
D.Organic chemistry
Explanation: Physical (biological) anthropology is a core branch, alongside social-cultural anthropology, archaeology, and linguistic anthropology.
5Social-cultural anthropology mainly studies:
A.Only the electrical circuits of computers
B.Only human DNA sequences in labs
C.Learned ways of life, social institutions, and cultural practices of human groups
D.Only the internal structure of stars
Explanation: Social-cultural anthropology examines culture and society—kinship, economy, politics, religion, values, and everyday practices—as learned, shared patterns of living.
6Archaeology as a branch of anthropology primarily studies past human life through:
A.Material remains such as tools, pottery, structures, and sites
B.Only live television debates
C.Only modern opinion polls

B.Only the anatomy of insects
C.Only space satellite design
D.Human language in social and cultural context
Explanation: Linguistic anthropology studies language structure, change, and use as part of social life and culture.
8Compared with history, anthropology is more likely to emphasize:
A.Only royal genealogies and nothing else
B.Comparative study of cultures and living communities as well as the human past
C.Only planetary motion equations
D.Only chemical reaction rates

9How does anthropology differ from pure sociology in traditional emphasis?
A.Anthropology studies only non-human animals
B.Anthropology never studies social groups
C.Anthropology has historically given more attention to small-scale, non-industrial, and cross-cultural societies, while sociology often focused on large modern industrial societies
