Answer to Question 1

The study involves both biological and sociocultural aspects of humanity, the deepest
possible time frame, study of all people wherever they may be found, and studying
many different aspects of the human experience.

Answer to Question 2

Ethnography is descriptive, based on direct fieldwork, and focuses on a single group;
ethnology is comparative, uses data collected by other ethnographers, and generalizes
across cultures or groups. They are both specialties within Cultural Anthropology and
both focus on the phenomenon of culture and cultural adaptation.
