Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Gender stereotypes are strengthened and maintained through cultural institutions and
social roles, among other mechanisms. Cultural institutions, particularly the media,
portray women (as well as members of others groups) in a stereotypic fashion. These
portrayals can have a cumulative effect on people's views of women. Although social
roles may have begun as a division of labor based in part on biology and in part on
social factors, over time, many people act in ways that are consistent with their roles.
In turn, the behaviors that result from these roles often come to justify the original
division of labor.
