Answer:     C. Rafael will exaggerate the similarities amongst out group members

Explanation:  Social identity theory means that each person strives to identify with the group on different grounds, national, family, team, etc., in order to identify with other members of his or her relative group and thus gain self-esteem, believe and feel that belonging to the group increases his / her own worth. The social identity thus acquired is an important mechanism that drives pride and self-esteem. Also belonging to a group provides some security when it comes to other groups, i.e relationships with other groups. The competitive spirit with other groups is important precisely for achieving self-esteem, even when there is no reason for it, i.e when there is no conflict about anything, there is no overlap of interest over specific resources. In order to gain social identity, each member of the group identifies with the other members even more than is realistic, because in this way they gain self-esteem, worth, security, and thus will see members of other groups, much more similar to each other than they actually are.

Which of the following choices describes a characteristic of a closed system?
Naya [18.7K]
Earth can be considered as a closed system, since it only receives sunlight (energy), while the overall mass stays constant, without (almost) any exchange from space. Another example of a closed system is a saucepan or frying pan, on a stove, when its lid is closed.
