How is the term "Culture" defined ?
Answer: A
Culture is defined as a complex whole that includes virtually everything acquired by man as a member of society, following Tylor's definition of knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom and other capabilities and habits. The other options describe fashion, technology use or social display, which are only parts of the lifestyle of some people, and not the meaning of culture. Edward Tylor gave this definition in 1871, and it is still the most quoted. It stresses that culture is learnt, shared and passed on, and that it includes ideas, customs and skills, in contrast with the narrow popular sense of fashionable living in the other options.
