A culture is a collection of beliefs, traditions, languages, old stories, skin colour diferences, hair colour and curliness and a lot more.
Distictive means identifiable, unchangable, not to be confused with. {that's an intended dangling preposition}
So a genius would answer such a question somewhere including these terms. But you didn't offer anything than an out-of-context exam question.
I expect that my answer would get higher marks than yours even though I was a Geologist!

The three modes of cultural contact and exchange - convergence, divergence, and hybridization - can impact patterns of dominance and diversity by either reinforcing existing power dynamics and dominant cultures through convergence, fostering diversity and creating new cultural expressions through hybridization, or preserving cultural distinctiveness through divergence. Depending on the context and power dynamics involved, each mode can either strengthen dominant cultural forces or pave the way for cultural diversity and inclusivity.
Cultural diffusion happens between different cultures that each maintain their own modes of organization but reassess and borrow each others' cultural "technologies". Cultural integration is when two different cultures merge to form a new more homogenous culture. Typically diffusion is between two separate entities or countries and integration is within the same country.
An area that is distinct from others in various ways can be described as a unique ecosystem. This distinctiveness may be due to specific geological features, climate conditions, biodiversity, or cultural characteristics that differentiate it from surrounding regions. It often plays a crucial role in preserving species diversity and cultural heritage.
The noun form for the adjective distinctive is distinctiveness.
When a population is absorbed into a larger culture, it often involves adapting to the dominant cultural norms, practices, and values of the larger group. This process may lead to the minority culture losing some of its distinctiveness and identity over time. It can also involve elements of assimilation, integration, or acculturation as the smaller group navigates their new cultural environment.
