If people label the elderly as “old and senile,” versus “malnourished” and “suffering from Alzheimer’s disease,” they are less likely to get the health care and food support that they need. Which theorist would focus on how labels impact the elderly?

In many less developed countries, policy efforts aimed at curbing population growth include:  

Policies that may help reduce the pay gap include: 1) building horizontal job ladders in occupations dominated by women, 2) increasing the costs (i.e., the negative sanctions) applied to employers that discriminate based on gender, 3) shift gender socialization so that doing housework isn’t associated with femininities and not doing housework isn’t associated with masculinities, and 4) change the structure of work to have more family-friendly and gender equitable family leave policies and work flexibility. 

In the documentary “Killing Us Softly 4” Dr. Jean Kilbourne argues that women are objectified and dismembered by advertisers, and that this dehumanization makes violence against women more likely in our society. When men are objectified and dismembered it is not equal treatment because they are typically shown as strong and powerful, and moreover, there are no real world consequences of this process for men; after all, most men aren’t under constant threat of sexual violence. Which theoretical perspective is best represented in this point of view?

HARDY-WEINBERG CALCULATIONS: In a population of geckos, there are two alleles at a particular locus (G and g), and the frequency of the dominant G allele is 0.1.  What is the expected frequency of heterozygotes under the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium model? 

Which statement best explains why genetic polymorphism (multiple alleles present for a given locus) is important to evolution?
