Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale: Social interparticipation refers to community activities that are designed to meet people's needs for companionship. Socialization refers to the process of transmitting values, knowledge, culture, and skills to others. Social control refers to the way in which order is maintained in a community. Mutual support refers to the community's ability to provide resources at a time of illness or disaster.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: A population is composed of people who share some common characteristic, but who do not necessarily interact with each otheras people on a subway might behave. They are all riding, but not really interacting. The other options are examples of communitypeople or a social system in which the members interact formally or informally and form networks that operate for the benefit of all people in the community. A grade school class or nurse graduates would fall into this category as would employees at a local plant-people who share some part of their lives in such a way that all benefit.
