Explanation:

• For "Most children learned language, family history, and songs from their mother": In traditional African villages, mothers often played a key role in teaching children cultural and familial knowledge like language, family history, and songs.
• For "Boys and girls studied separately from age six": Traditional African village education often had gender - based separation in learning from a certain age, and age six is a plausible age for such separation to start.
• For "Most children learned to live and survive in the natural world": Since these villages were often closely tied to nature, learning survival skills in the natural world was a crucial part of education.
• The option "Boys and girls studied separately from age three" is less likely as age three is too young for such a separation in traditional African village education.

Answer:

A. Most children learned language, family history, and songs from their mother.
