Answer:

i think its mating gradient

Step-by-step explanation:

cohabitation is living together but not in a relationship. i know that much.

endogamy is marrying within limits of a clan or tribe or group.

mating gradient is this:

In more general terms, the mating gradient means that when men increase in status, they widen their pool of eligibles; when women increase in status, their pool of eligibles becomes narrower, leading to an exacerbation of the female marriage squeeze.
