The correct answer is letter A

On the morning of January 24, 1848, carpenter James Wilson Marshall and his staff worked on the construction of a sawmill at John Sutter's ranch in the Sierra Nevada region of central California. Marshall had to bypass a stream to install the saw, moved by the force of the water. When he looked at the muddy bed of the Americans' river, something caught his eye: there was something shining there in the sunlight. It was gold.

The gold that flowed in California was generous. In the first months after the discovery, it was possible to collect the nuggets directly from the soil. Just crouch and pick it up. The precious metal was found in riverbeds and in ravines that flow. Mexican Antonio Franco Coronel, for example, left the job of teaching in Los Angeles and in three days of mining collected 4.2 kg of gold.

Explanation:

Anthropology can be defined as the scientific study of humanity with respect to human biology, human behaviors, human societies, cultures, beliefs, survival and the evolutionary history of humans (Homosapiens) through time and space. There are various fields under anthropology and these includes Ethnomusicology, Biological anthropology, Linguistic anthropology, Sociocultural anthropology, Archaeology, Applied anthropology, Economic anthropology, and Visual anthropology.

On the other hand, sociology can be defined as a social science that deals with the study of the socio-cultural interaction of humans with respect to the structure, functioning and development of their society.

The main purpose of sociology is to develop and enhance human knowledge or understanding of important socio-cultural processes through the gathering and analysis of all aspects of the social life of the people living in a society.

Hence, the main difference between anthropology and many other social sciences such as human geography, economics, sociology, law, psychology, political science, etc., is that anthropology is typically concerned with human biology as well as human behavior.
