Answer to Question 1

Beautifully done Thanks

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: Because culture involves race and ethnicity, it is important to distinguish between these concepts. Race is based on genetically determined and geographically based characteristics. Often, but not always, it is apparent through skin color, which is a biological adaptation to the geography that may vary as groups of people migrate and intergenerate. Ethnicity includes race in that it describes how a group of people share common characteristics, such as nationality, religion, language, and cultural heritage.
