Answer to Question 1

It is a system of perceptions, values, beliefs, and customs that are significantly different from those of a large, dominant culture within the same society.

Answer to Question 2

Norms are ideal cultural patterns that influence behavior in a society; values are culturally defined ideas about what is true, right, and beautiful.
