Answer:

"Bias can be defined as an inclination of temperament or outlook, especially a personal and sometimes unreasoned judgment—i.e., prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair—for example, an overgeneralization.

Prejudice (prae=previous; judicum=judgment) can be defined as a preconceived judgment or opinion; an adverse opinion or leaning without just grounds or before sufficient knowledge; or an irrational attitude of hostility directed against an individual, group, a race, or their supposed characteristics.

Reference: Hollinger, Paul C. “Understanding Bias, Prejudice, and Violence.” Psychology Today, Sussex Publishers, 2019

Prejudice means you judge someone by a something general about them. Like race or gender. Bias means someone leans towards something. For example when discussing food someone is likely to favor foods they like.

What was a regular day like in the renaissance time period and did they have any villages or anything?
kondor19780726 [428]
The renaissance was a time of education, art, music, and activities that did not revolve around the church. Often times adults and children alike would make art, play instruments, and learn in a school-like setting. They would also attend church everyday. And yes, they did have villages.
