Your friend, who works at a toy store on the weekends and has never taken a sociology course, tells you that on several occasions they have observed parents tell their children that they cannot have a certain toy because they are a "boy" or a "girl." Your friend also comments that fathers tended towards this behavior more than mothers. What sociological function/trait has your friend expressed without knowing it?

In recent months, the global pandemic has forced humans to part from past ways of thinking, and adopt new habits and traditions that are different than ever before. The new "norm" is ever changing. Measures such as social distancing and the usage of masks has created a sense of disconnect among humans.

This concept of past values and norms being broken down, leading to a feeling of a loss of control in societies, is an example of:

true consciousness

False consciousness

Anomie

Social pathology

Carly works at a hair salon during the day. She is talking to her co-workers very passionately about the protest she co-founded that she plans to participate in later that day that calls for new policies on prison reform. She has watched several documentaries and researched American prison systems online and feels that the environment in which inmates are kept needs drastic change. The group hosting the protest has been recruiting people to join for weeks in hopes the mass number of people will catch the media's attention.

Carly and her group are:

activists; inside claimsmakers

researchers; policymakers

experts; outside claimsmakers
