Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Option D describes a household composed of a nuclear family (the married couple and their children) and an additional family member (the husband's sister), which makes it an extended family. Option A (college sorority) does not describe a family unit, while option B (Arapesh tribe) is a community group or society, not necessarily a family unit. Option C (Beverly, Bob, and their children) only describes a nuclear family.
