Correct answer choices are :


C) Social organization of clans and tribes

D) Moved around a lot

E) Livestock was only surplus

Explanation:

A pastoral society is a nomadic association of people who move with a herd of trained animals, which they rely on for food. The word pastoral comes from the Latin root word pastor, which determines shepherd. Someone living in a pastoral society is named a pastoralist. Everyday life is focused upon the tending of herds or droves.

"moved around a lot" would be the best option in terms of a characteristic of nomadic pastoral societies, since these societies would move in order to find new food resources and better land.
