The correct answer is A. Writing about the colors used in various artworks located in a museum

Step-by-step explanation:

Archeologists are experts that study prehistory and history, mainly by finding and analyzing artifacts or elements from cultures from the past. Due to this, it is common archeologist spend a lot of time outdoors digging and looking for artifacts such as paintings, tombs or any other remains that are later taken to labs or similar to be more precisely analyzed. However "writing about the colors used in various artworks located in a museum" is not one of the responsibilities or task of archeologists because they are interested in cultures from the past and in discovering artifacts that provide information related to them, not in artistic pieces that are often modern or in the colors in them.
