Answer:

c. Linguistic determinism hypothesis.

Explanation:

The linguistic determinism hypothesis is also known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. According to this theory, the language we speak determines our thought processes - such as memorization, categorization, and perception - and influences our social reality. Therefore, people who grow up speaking different mother tongues may have a hard time expressing their ideas in other languages. Their ideas and perceptions of the world are connected to the language they speak.

The Sapir-Whorf theory is used in the movie "Arrival", in which a linguist's cognitive processes are deeply enhanced by learning and immersing in an alien language.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Personal Opportunity Cost - Spare non drive time sacrifised

Social Opportunity Cost - Fuel efficiency (high pollution), Road Traffic (Congestion issues).

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost  is the cost of next best alternative, foregone while choosing an alternative. Bill can commute either by bus, or by self drive.

If Bill drives his car, opportunity cost for him is - the spare time sacrifised, that he could have used while car drive in some other activity (eg reading, listening music).

Opportunity Cost for society is - the fuel utilisation & road traffic management  efficiency sacrifised, by using private instead of public transport. This leads to more pollution, more congestion on roads.
