Answer 1

Throughout the world, peoples who rely on hunting and gathering for their food possess a rich knowledge of their habitats.

Most false statement is:

D."Savages, and very primitive peoples generally, concern themselves only with superficial natural resources; with those which they obtain from the actual surface of the ground."

Contradicting terms. How can people who possesses a rich knowledge of their habitats allow themselves to only be concerned about superficial natural resources? This can't be. They can't help but apply their knowledge and live off natural resources that goes beyond those that are from the actual surface of the ground.
