Answer to Question 1

Castes are social strata into which people are born and in which they remain for life. Membership in a caste is an ascribed status. Classes are social strata based primarily on economic criteria such as occupation, income, and wealth. Class membership is more open, and in modern times there is a good deal of mobility between classes.

Answer to Question 2
