He explained that the pillars of tribalism that humans rely on for security would always counter any significant culture or social change.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3, i.e. counter any significant culture or social change.

  • The word 'culture' is used in it's incorrect form. It has been used as a noun and fails to complete the sense made by the statement. But, by using an adjective-form 'cultural' we can efficiently complete the sense of the statement with whole accuracy because it bears a slightly different meaning.
