the time in the United States and part of the time in Mexico. Which term best
describes this family?

Answer 1

Multiethnic is the correct answer

Answer 2

Multiethnic family is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiethnic is defined by the Merriam-Webster Dictionary as something "made up of people of various ethnicities." It is important to point out that ethnicity refers to the fact of belonging to a social group with a common national or cultural tradition. In this case, different groups coexist in the same family: Mexican, American, and Irish, so it is considered a multiethnic family.
