Maasai people adopting cultivation and trade shows which transformation of pastoral life?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Diversification of livelihood under pressure

Pastoralism can change when families face loss of animals, restricted movement, drought, reduced grazing land, or changing markets. Cultivation and trade allow people to obtain food and income from more than one source. This does not necessarily mean that pastoralism disappears completely; families may continue keeping some animals while adding other work. Such flexibility helps them respond to pressure and reduce dependence on a single livelihood.

Option A is correct because adopting cultivation and trade shows diversification under difficult conditions. Options B, C, and D are too extreme or unrelated: pastoralism did not necessarily end, drought did not permanently disappear, and cattle did not become meaningless. The change demonstrates adaptation, in which households combine older practices with new economic activities.
