Answer 1

The characteristic typically associated with people who have experienced one or more inter-ethnic dating relationships is:

a. They have an ethnically diverse group of friends.

Having friends from various ethnic backgrounds often reflects openness to inter-ethnic relationships and indicates a broader social network that includes individuals from different cultures.
