Answer to Question 1

It occurs when one part of culture changes more rapidly than another. An example is having technologies, such as cloning, without a set of values and norms to guide them.

Answer to Question 2

It is the process through which individuals learn and adopt the values and social practices of the dominant group, more or less giving up their own values in the process.
