Cecilia Ramos · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Macro-structures refer to larger patterns of social relations that are beyond the individual level, such as social institutions, organizations, and cultural norms. Micro-structures refer to smaller, more immediate social relations, such as personal networks and face-to-face interactions. While social structures can refer to both micro and macro levels of social relations, the term is more commonly used to describe larger patterns of social organization, making option E partially correct. Power structures focus specifically on the distribution of power and authority within a society.
