Which of the following sentences best describes the relationship between culture and perception?

(A) Our perceptual rules are inborn and not affected by culture.
(B) Perceptual rules are culturally based, so rules that apply to one culture rarely apply to another.
(C) Most perceptual rules apply in all cultures, but some perceptual rules are learned and vary between cultures.
(D) Slight variations in sensory apparatuses among cultures create slight differences in perception.
(E) The processes involved in perception are genetically based, so genetic differences among cultures affect perception.

Answer
(C) Most perceptual rules apply in all cultures, but some perceptual rules are learned and vary between cultures.

Spoiler
Explanation
Most perceptual principles apply in all cultures. However, some perceptual sets are learned and will vary, so choices A and B are incorrect. Sensory apparatuses do not vary among cultures, and perception is not genetically based as implied in choice E.
