Let’s break it down:

- Serial polyandry means a woman marries (or lives with) one man at a time, but has several husbands in succession—not all at once.

- The concept is mainly associated with Morris Opler. He studied cultures where women would re-marry multiple times, one after another.

- Let’s look at the choices:

- Miller: Known for psychology, not this concept.

- Morris Opler: Did pioneering work on kinship and marriage patterns, especially serial polyandry.
