Question

The best term to describe the client's cultural development is multicultural, as they have been exposed to and influenced by two distinct cultures – African American and Asian American. The term diversity refers to a range of different cultural backgrounds, and subculture refers to a group within a larger culture with their own unique values and customs. Cultural sensitivity is important for healthcare providers to ensure that they are aware and respectful of diverse cultures, but it does not accurately describe the client's development. Therefore, option C is the best choice.
