Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Ethnicity is a complex phenomenon including traditions, symbols, literature, folklore, food preferences, and dress. It is a shared identity. Ethnicity is more than just culture. It is social differentiation based on culture. Even within ethnic groups, there is considerable diversity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Groups of people born within the same decade may share a common historical context. This is important in understanding how one experiences a world event. Although cohort effect is important in understanding historical context, it does not negate individuality. Not all indi-viduals are the same. Different groups of people may have a different world perspective based on experiences of major world events.
