barbeque is an example of which of the following?
a native practice controversially renamed in english
a european practice now better known by a native word
a native word adopted popularly into the english language

Explanation:

The text under "Indigenous Words" states that many English words like barbeque are borrowed from Native cultures. So barbeque is a Native word that has been adopted into English. The first option talks about controversial renaming (not supported by text), the second about a European practice (text says it's borrowed from Native, not European), so the third option fits.

Answer:

c. a Native word adopted popularly into the English language (assuming the options are labeled a, b, c with the third being this; if original options had different labels, adjust, but based on content, the correct one is the option stating it's a Native word adopted into English)
