Who are the Sioux (pronounced su)?

  1. The Aboriginal people who primarily fished.

  2. The nomadic Aboriginal people who followed the bison herd.

  3. The Aboriginal people of the Northwest who were hunter-gatherers.

  4. European explorers from Iceland.

The correct answer is: The nomadic Aboriginal people who followed the bison herd.

The Sioux (pronounced su) are a Native American tribe known for being nomadic and following the bison herds for their survival. Option A and C may describe certain Aboriginal groups, but not specifically the Sioux. Option D is incorrect as it describes European explorers from Iceland, which does not relate to the Sioux at all. Thus, Option B is the best answer as it accurately describes the Sioux and their way of life.
