Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Enculturation is the process of passing a culture down from generation to generation. Culture can be taught directly, for instance, with the grandmother teaching the child. Culture can also be taught indirectly as when a child observes a role in the community. The student observing the grandmother teaching a child is the best example of enculturation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Language is the most extensively used set of symbols in a culture. The other items are important symbols but are not as important as language because words are used to represent objects and ideas.
