Answer to Question 1
Feedback: Deficiency theories propose that some groups are disadvantaged because, when compared with the majority, they are deficient in some important way, either biologically (genetically inferior) or culturally. Critics include proponents of bias theories, who say that disadvantaged groups are victims of the prejudices against them held by the dominant group. Structural discrimination theorist say that deficiency theories and bias theories are both wrong, because they emphasize the individual over the social organization.
