Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
An ascribed role is one in which the person has no choice, such as being born a son or daughter. An assumed role is one that the person selects, such as being a nurse. A designated role is one that is assigned by another, such as being made the contact person during a fire emergency. Heredity is the genes one inherits from their biological parents.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Physical changes such as decreased strength, skin turgor, and sensory acuity affect body image in later life. Because of the valuation of youth in the media and popular culture, some older people experience lowered self-esteem with the changed body image.
