This question is incomplete; here is the complete question:

All of the following were activities for Paleolithic nomads EXCEPT:

A. digging up plants

B. making and repairing

C. protecting flocks and herds

D. finding secure places to live

The correct answer to this question is C. protecting flocks and herds

Step-by-step explanation:

During the Paleolithic, human groups had a nomadic lifestyle, this means they did not settle in one place but moved through different places to find plants to eat and collect or animals to hunt. Moreover, this lifestyle involved finding temporary places to stay and creating tools to facilitate hunting and other tasks.

However, humans of this period did not focus on protecting flocks and herds (option C) because they were only interested in hunting animals and if flocks were not available they just moved to another area. Moreover, this activity only occurred after the neolithic as human groups settled and began raising their own animals, which implied protecting these.
