b. Integration

c. Separation

d. Marginalization

In sociology, the term cultural integration refers to the form of cultural exchange in which a person assumes the beliefs and practices from another group but still maintains the beliefs and practices from their own culture. In other words, they integrate two cultures without sacrificing the first one.

In this example Huong is from China but she has moved to the US. She dresses and acts like her American friends but she has retained much of her cultural heritage. We can see that she has integrated the American way of living and acting but she still maintains the traditions from her Chinese culture, thus this is an example of integration.
