The behavior of American students described by Maria is characteristic of a low power distance culture, where there is a relatively small power distance between individuals and authority figures. In contrast, in high power distance cultures, such as Mexico, students may show more deference to authority figures and be less likely to question or contradict them. Therefore, the best choice is C) high power distance.
