The correct answer is:

**(Choice A) The environment in which they lived influenced their societies and economies.**

Mississippian people, like other Native American groups, adapted their societies and economies to the environments in which they lived, utilizing available resources and developing agricultural practices suited to their surroundings. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the Mississippian culture or its similarities with other Native American groups.
