Answer:

b. salmon

Step-by-step explanation:

The Native people of the Northwest Coast inhabited a narrow belt of coastland from the southern border of Alaska to northwestern California. This was one of the largest cultural groups of the Americas, and one of the most developed ones. The Northwest Coast peoples lived in heavily wooded areas, which allowed them to employ wood for most of their needs, such as housing, canoes, totem poles, containers, etc. For nourishment, they relied heavily on the salmon, which gave this fish a very important place in their culture.
