Answer:

Socioeconomic Inequality

Explanation:

Poverty has generally been defined in two ways:

As the impossibility of satisfying basic subsistence needs, such as food, health, housing, clothing and access to health (drinking water, sanitation, sewage or contaminated water services, among others.) This way of defining it has to do with aspects of human subsistence.

On the other hand, it can also be defined in terms of the capacity that some people have to access goods and services - not just material - of a society in comparison to the wealthiest members of it. In this case, the definition of poverty has more to do with the term "socioeconomic inequality."

In other words, there are societies in which the satisfaction of individuals' basic needs is no longer a problem, but there is a marked gap between those who earn the most and those who earn the least. This gap is called “socioeconomic inequality”, a term in which “poverty” is defined concerning “other economic positions”.

Furkat [3]

<u>Answer: </u>

Formal social controls exist within the legal system.

Option: (E)

<u>Explanation: </u>

The need for social control is experienced when an individual, a group of individuals, or an entity exhibits and continues to exhibit a certain type of behavior that is uncivil and unacceptable.
The social controls in place make sure that the behavior is restrained and changed to what is civil and acceptable in society.
These controls are mostly imposed through legal means by bringing the behavior to the notice of the responsible authorities.

Describe the process purpose and problem with gerrymandering

lidiya [134]

Two principal tactics are used in gerrymandering: "cracking" (i.e. diluting the voting power of the opposing party's supporters across many districts) and "packing" (concentrating the opposing party's voting power in one district to reduce their voting power in other districts).[3] The third tactic, shown in the top-left diagram in the diagrams to the right, is that of homogenization of all districts.

The purpose is to help or hinder a particular demographic, such as a political, ethnic, racial, linguistic, religious, or class group, such as in U.S. federal voting district boundaries that produce a majority of constituents representative of African-American or other racial minorities, known as "majority-minority districts"

The problem is that it causes increased incumbent advantage and campaign costs , less descriptive representation , or using prisoners as voter count.
