QUESTION 1
1.1. (2 ANSWERS PROVIDED)
Sociology, fundamentally, is the study of societies, social relationships, and institutions. It
is a social science that examines the ways individuals interact within the context of groups,
organizations, societies, and institutions. Sociology delves into the patterns of social
behavior and seeks to understand how social structures (such as class, gender, race, or
religion) influence behaviour and how individuals and groups affect society as a whole. It
also explores the various social processes that contribute to the continuity and change of
societies over time. By doing so, sociology provides insights into the social mechanisms
that underpin everyday life, cultural norms, and social hierarchies, and it also brings to light
social issues and problems, offering a critical evaluation of human society.
