Answer to Question 1

ANS: Applied research seeks to gain scientific knowledge for the sake of solving particular social problems.

ANS: Cultural relativism is the notion that any part of a culture must be viewed in its proper cultural context rather than from the viewpoint of the observers culture. It opens up the possibility that we can understand another culture.
