Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Disengagement theory holds as people grow older, they often gradually withdraw from their earlier roles, and that this process is a mutual one rather than the result of rejection or discrimination by younger people. Functionalists see it as a positive process because it opens up roles for younger people and frees the elderly from stressful roles in their waning years.
