Why does Marvin Harris suggest that the Hindu belief in the sacred cow is adaptive?
a.   Seeing the sacred cows every day serves as a reminder to follow the teachings of their faith.
b.   The cows carry a dangerous parasite that makes their meat unsafe for consumption.
c.   It is economically wiser to use the labor and products of the cows than to eat them.
d.   Not everyone can afford to eat meat, so it reduces inequality if the cows are forbidden to everyone.
