Answer to Question 1

An iceberg has parts that are visible above the water and larger parts that are submerged. So does a culture have both visible parts and invisible parts. Visible parts may be seen in clothing, foods, literature, art, and music. Behavior can also be observed. But expectations, attitudes, values, beliefs, and perceptions may be hidden from outsiders.

Answer to Question 2

Most developed countries view technology favorably while many less-developed countries may resist technology and technological change.
