Rationalization
Social stratification

Correct Answer Logic:

Merton's distinction between manifest functions (intended, recognized consequences) and latent functions (unintended, unrecognized consequences) refined Parsonian functionalism by acknowledging that social institutions serve multiple purposes, some hidden from participants.

Geography QUESTION #1246

Question 8393

Convection currents are found in:

Troposphere✔️
Stratosphere
Ionosphere
None of these

Correct Answer Logic:

Convection currents in the atmosphere occur primarily in the troposphere — the lowest layer of the atmosphere (0–12 km). The troposphere is heated from below by the Earth's surface, making it thermally unstable and prone to convective overturning (warm air rises, cool air sinks). The stratosphere is thermally stable (temperature increases with altitude), suppressing convection.
