Answer: Rebellion

Explanation:

In Merton´s classification of deviance, rebellion is the most extreme type and happens when cultural and social goals and means are rejected to be substituted with socially unacceptable ones, leading to criminal acts and violence.  

Americans socialized into the American Dream, learn to believe that society is a meritocracy where hard work leads to success. Those who become aware of the tension between expected goals and acceptable means to reach them, have to make different adaptations, such as rebellion.

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The best answer is c).

Explanation:

According to the Big Five personality traits, someone who scored very low in extraversion will show resistance to attend crowded places (they prefer solitude) and is unlikely to engage in small talks.

However, <u>if she does</u>, it will probably be due to peer pressure and might feel uncomfortable most of the time.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

D. Launching a filibuster

Filibustering has long been a source of outside interest for the US Senate. Traditionally, 60 votes or a "supermajority" are needed to vote to end a filibuster. In 2013, Sen. Harry Reid pushed for an amendment that would require only a simple majority when it came to judicial and executive branch nominees (the Senate's Advise and Consent role) and the Republicans recently expanded this to the Supreme Court.
