Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

From a sociological perspective, prejudice is a negative attitude based on faulty

generalizations about members of selected racial and ethnic groups. Although prejudice

can be either positive (bias in favor of a groupoften our own) or negative (bias

against a groupone we deem less worthy than our own), it most often refers to the

negative attitudes that people may have about members of other racial or ethnic

groups. To some extent, all people have prejudiced feelings against members of other

groups. Prejudice is rooted in ethnocentrism and perpetuated by stereotypes

overgeneralizations about the appearance, behavior, or other characteristics of

members of particular categories. Stereotypes can be either positive or negative.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
