Answer:The correct answer is "C: Dysfunctional".

Explanation:Functionalism is the theory that expresses that mental states are characterized by what they do, rather than what they are made of. For example, a mousetrap exists for the sake of getting rid of mice. One tends to visualize a mousetrap as a wooden platform with a coiled metal spring. However, there are different types of traps for mice.

Following this definition, there are elements in society that function against the current operation of a stable society, like crime, for example. Crime goes against the mental state of the property and how certain things belong to people.
