According to the statement, ethnographic research about the Inuit people of the Arctic indicates that males provide virtually all of the food needs by hunting seals, walruses, whales, and fish. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because it states that both males and females share responsibility, which contradicts the given statement. Option C is incorrect because it suggests that males forage for edible plants, which is not mentioned in the statement. Option D is incorrect because it implies that males and females work separately, which is again not mentioned in the statement.
