Answer 1

Answer:

B. are relative and take context into consideration.

Explanation:

The abnormality is a subjectively defined characteristic that is assigned to those who have rare or dysfunctional conditions. Defining whether a person is normal or abnormal is a difficult issue in the field of abnormality psychology.

Abnormal is an adjective that is used to name what is outside its natural state or the conditions that are inherent to it. For example: "Needless to say, the birth of an animal with two heads is somewhat abnormal," "It is abnormal that it is so hot in this part of the world," "I have detected some abnormal results in the study."
