Answer to Question 1

Whether or not an act is regarded as deviant often depends upon the time, the place, the individual, and the audience.

Answer to Question 2

Informal social control is self-restraint because of fear of what others will think, while formal social control includes administrative sanctions such as fines, expulsion, or imprisonment.
