Question

Social Stratification is:

• A. Hierarchical
• B. Non-hierarchical
• C. Non-generational
• D. Not supported by pattern of belief

Hint:

When studying social stratification, focus on its key characteristics: hierarchy, generation-based structure, and how it reflects the distribution of resources and opportunities.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Social stratification refers to the hierarchical arrangement of individuals or groups in a society based on factors like wealth, power, and status. Therefore, social stratification is **hierarchical** by nature. It is not non-hierarchical, non-generational, or unsupported by patterns of belief.
