Answer 1

$\huge \bold{Acculturation}$

Because acculturation means being like 2 or more different cultures by not forgetting their native one. Here in the above situation, it is mentioned that she's an Indian American. And when she speaks Punjabi with her family, we can say her native place is India. She speaks in English and eats junk food but she doesn't forget about her tradition and culture. This situation matches with Acculturation.

$\bold{Assimilation}$ : Being absorbed into something.

$\bold{Relocation Diffusion}$ : Spread of ideas from one place to another.

$\bold{Migration}$ : Moving from one place to another.

$\bold{Acculturation}$ : Adopting two or more cultures by not forgetting their native one.

$\bold{Syncretism}$ : Unification can be the meaning.
