Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The common cultural themes of family and marriage are mate selection, descent patterns, inheritance, and authority. Mate selection is either within one's own group (endogamy) or outside the group (exogamy). Patterns of descent can be either patrilineal (based on the father's side of the family), matrilineal (based on the mother's side of the family, or bilineal (based on both the father's and mother's side of the family). Inheritance follows the same patterns as descent. Authority can also be based on a man's dominance (patriarchy), on a woman's dominance (matriarchy), or shared by both the man and woman (egalitarian).
