According to Pinker and Bloom,if the acquisition of language was a trait variation that produced just 1 percent more offspring per generation,how long would it take to see an increase in prevalence from 0.1 percent to 99.9 percent

A)  3 generations 
B)  30 generations 
C)  4,000 generations 
D)  40,000 generations

According to Pinker and Bloom's calculation, if the acquisition of language was a trait variation that produced just 1 percent more offspring per generation, it would take around 4000 generations (or years) to see an increase in prevalence from 0.1 percent to 99.9 percent. This is because each generation would have only a slight increase in the number of individuals with the trait, and it would take time for this increase to compound and become dominant in the population. Therefore, the correct answer is C, 4000 generations.
