According to strain theory, there are five adaptations to social strain. conformity and rebellion are two types of these adaptations. The other three are ritualism, retreatism , and innovation.
<h3>What is strain theory?</h3>
According to the strain theory in sociology, pressure from societal conditions such a lack of money or inadequate education pushes people to commit crimes. The concepts behind strain theory were first articulated in the 1930s by American sociologist Robert K. Merton. In the 1950s, his research on the subject had a particularly significant impact. Other specialists, like American sociologists Richard Cloward and Lloyd Ohlin, as well as American criminologist Albert Cohen, put forth comparable hypotheses.
When the failure to attain shared objectives (such as the realization of the "American dream") was considered as a driving factor behind crime, classic strain theories typically focused on underprivileged people. those whose incomes were below the poverty threshold.

<h3>
Answer: A. competition among producers</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
Competition reduces prices while also increasing the quality of the product or service. Companies that don't do such things will likely be out of business since the customer can go elsewhere for a better experience. The more competition, the better consumers are off.
In contrast, monopolies are bad for consumers because one company can set the price to whatever they want (to a certain level of course) and the customer has no choice to pay that price. The customer does not have any other option so the company is in full control. This leads to decline in quality because quality is often associated with cost. Safety standards may decline as well. So this is why monopolies are not good for the customer. In cases where there are monopolies, such as with power utilities, it is strongly advised that government regulations are put in place. This way the company doesn't completely exploit the customer.
In short, we can eliminate choice D because it runs counter to choice A.
Choice C can also be eliminated because if you had a decrease in supply, then the price of the product is likely to go up if you hold other factors in check (such as keeping the same level of demand). Higher prices do not benefit consumers unless those consumers had an equal or better wage increase.
A raise in interest rates means that it becomes more expensive to borrow money. For example, a raise in interest rates means that mortgage rates go higher. This negative is slightly counterbalanced with the fact that savings accounts interest rates go up as well. Overall, I think a rise in interest rates means that consumers ultimately pay more, so we can cross choice B off the list as well.
