Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A commune is a group of men, women, and children all living together. Families with relatives beyond the nuclear family are called extended families. Kinship care provided to children constitutes a no-parent family. An unmarried man and woman living together is called cohabitation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Structural-functional theory focuses on the functioning of the family and the roles assumed by each family member to promote family function. Necessary roles include provider, housekeeper, child caregiver, socializer, sexual partner, therapist, recreational organizer, and kinship member. The therapist role is assumed when one family member expresses concern for another's health or emotional well-being. The aunt does not appear to be the primary caregiver (child-caregiver role). There is no indication that the aunt fills the socializer role by organizing family social activities. The kinship role includes maintaining family and social ties by things like remembering important dates, and the aunt does not appear to function in that role either.
