When Iris first started researching her family's history, she went to ancestry.com and, to limit her search, focused only on people related to her "by blood" until she could locate her great-great-great-grandparents on both her mother's and father's sides of the family. (She figured that later on she could look for people who married into the family.) In other words, Iris was MOST interested in defining her ancestral kinship in terms of:- an affinal relationship.- a descent group.- a companionate family.- a primary group.

Answer: In other words, Iris was MOST interested in defining her ancestral kinship in terms of a descent group.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is a descent group?

A descent group refers to family relations that are based on ancestry.

Great great great grandparents refers to ancestry line and if these are from both families which means from her mother's side and her father's side this descent is referred to as a unilineal society. When Iris starts to look to at who married to the family now she is considering or looking at the matrilineal descent.
