Answer
The adaptation strategy being applied by the Nigerian students is **Separation**.Co-Cultural Theory examines how marginalized groups communicate with dominant groups. Separation is a strategy where the co-cultural group chooses to remain separate from the dominant culture, retaining their own cultural identity and values. By keeping to themselves, the Nigerian students are demonstrating a preference for interacting primarily within their own cultural group.
