Shоrt Answer As pаrt оf yоur exаm there аre 3 short answer questions worth 10 points each. Five short answer question options are presented below, and you should select (only) 3 to answer in completion. Please read through each of the 5 short answer question options and pick the 3 you feel you can answer most completely. Keep in mind that you will only be graded on 3 of the questions and answering all 5 questions will not provide extra points. Even if you answer additional questions, only the first 3 will be graded. Requirements: Selection: Pick (only) 3 of the 5 questions to answer. Length: 6–8 complete sentences per answer. Depth: To receive full credit-- address all parts of the question, include sociological concepts/definitions, and provide specific examples (referencing assignments or readings where applicable). Option 1:Using a social problem of your choice from Modules 1-4 (such as the gender pay gap, racial profiling, or wealth inequality), explain how a Conflict Theorist and a Structural Functionalist would disagree on the cause of that problem. In your answer, you must specifically address which group benefits from the problem according to the Conflict perspective, and what "purpose" or "equilibrium" the Functionalist might argue the situation provides for society. Option 2: In our study of Module 2: Inequality: Poverty, Work and the Economy, we examined the "Working Divide." Use the Structural Functionalist perspective to argue why a certain level of economic inequality might be considered "functional" for a society (e.g., motivating talent). Then, counter that argument by applying one specific concept from the Module 2: Assignment - The Working Divide that illustrates how this inequality actually causes a social dysfunction for the community. Option 3: Reflecting on your Module 4: Assignment - Media Analysis, identify one specific media artifact (a commercial, show, or advertisement) you analyzed. Explain how this artifact reinforces hegemonic masculinity or femininity. How does this specific portrayal contribute to a broader social problem regarding gender roles, and what is one real-world consequence for individuals who do not conform to that portrayal? Option 4: Based on the Module 3: Inequality: Race and Ethnicity materials, explain what it means to say that race is a "social construct" rather than a biological reality. Provide a specific example of how racial categories have changed over time or vary between different cultures to prove this point. How does this "construction" of race lead to the social problem of Systemic Discrimination in modern institutions like housing or education? Option 5: Choose a social problem from Module 1: Understanding Social Problems (such as poverty or unemployment). Using Symbolic Interactionism, explain how the "labels" we attach to people experiencing these problems influence their self-identity. If society labels someone as "lazy" or "unproductive" due to their economic status, how does that label contribute to a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?
