Answer: The correct answer is:
Explanation: A social norm is the accepted behavior that an individual is expected to have in a particular group, community, or culture. Norms often serve a useful purpose and create the foundation of correct behaviors. Law is critical to enhancing good social norms and undermining bad ones. Standards that people carry with also contribute to the enhancement of social norms, such as beauty standards, house-role standards, etc. Folkways are standards of behavior that are socially approved but not morally significant and they contribute to social norms.
