Answer to Question 1

The four factors are biology (signs of aging occur earlier in some people than in others); personal history (the effects of accidents can make a person feel older sooner); gender age (the same features, such as graying hair and wrinkles, may be seen as signs of maturity on a man but of getting old on a woman); and timetables (the signals societies use to inform their members that old age has begun, such as retirement).

Answer to Question 2

b. The culture of poverty
