Answer: B. Mexico is a blend of Spanish, Welsh, and English cultures.
Explanation:
The answer is indeed B. Mexico is more a blend of Spanish culture and that of the Mesoamerican tribes that dominated the area before the arrival of the Spanish. Once the Spanish arrived however, they imposed their ways on the natives thereby leading to a blended culture.
The Spanish were very Catholic which is why the major religion in Mexico is Catholicism. Mexicans also believe in strong extended family ties and prepare food such as corn, and beans.
