Answer:

a. 1/3

Explanation:

Although, this is a controversial topic and it is hard to state exactly how much income share the top 1% or how much of the United State's wealth rests with the wealthiest top 1% but, it can be said that approximately one-third (1/3) of the wealth remains with the top 1%. Also, some of the sources like Washington Post suggests that up to 40% of the wealth rests with the US top 1% households. Hence, given the options, 1/3 is most suitable.

tatiyna

Answer:

The correct answer is manifest, latent.

Explanation:

Manifest functions refer to the consequences that people tend to observe or even expect. For example, in the given scenario it is mentioned that following famous activists, academics, and politicians on Twitter can influence the public opinion. Here the followers just observe the actions and ideas of the personalities they follow and nothing more. Therefore, it will be an example of manifest function.

Latent function refers to the situations which are rather unintentional. For example, the question mentions that some classmates become more close while reading and exchanging tweets. There is no intention of friendship involved so it will be an example of latent example.
