This statement is true. Cultural practices and beliefs develop as adaptive responses to the environment, including natural resources, climate, geography, and other factors. For example, pastoral cultures such as the Maasai in East Africa have developed practices and beliefs that enable them to survive and thrive in arid environments, while coastal cultures have developed practices related to fishing and maritime trade.
