Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

Ascribed statuses lies beyond the control of an individual. It is something people either born with or have no control over, for example of the sex, race, and age. A master status determines the social position of a person and the position to which the person most relates while trying to express himself to others. Therefore they played a significant influence in achieving one's potential to achieve a desired professional and social status.
