Santa Monica College Biological and Social View of Race Discussion Questions Question 1 : Your answer should be from a sociological point of view, not you

Santa Monica College Biological and Social View of Race Discussion Questions Question 1 :

Your answer should be from a sociological point of view, not your personal opinion. I am grading for understanding. Please answer the following:

What is the difference between a biological and a social view of race?

Explain how race is a social construction rather than a biological one.

Who has benefitted from the idea of separating people into categories based on their physical appearance, and then distributing resources based on those differences.

Question 2 :

This week you read about the social constructions of sex, gender, and sexuality. Using either the readings or, Ted Talk video by Dr. Davis, please explain your understanding of the difference between sex, gender, and sexuality. Your response should be grounded in a sociological understanding, not your opinion. There is a “correct” sociological answer here.
