Answer to Question 1

Deviant behaviors deviate from the social norm; however, these behaviors are not necessarily illegal. In addition, not all crimes are considered deviant behaviors; although, they often overlap.

Sociologists who study deviant behaviors often want to understand or identify the line that separates criminal from unusual behaviors.
