Answer:

B- Exogamy

Step-by-step explanation:

Exogamy occurs when the couple does not belong to the same group (eg tribe or clan). The term is also used to refer to the trend of couples to choose their partners within different social or geographic group. The opposite trend is called endogamy, when the couple belongs to the same group, within the same social group.
