demoted to junior - level status.

Explanation:

• For the first question:
• The "breadwinner/homemaker marriage" model is characterized by one spouse (usually the husband historically) being the main income - earner (breadwinner) and the other (usually the wife) taking care of the home and family (homemaker). In Don and Betty's case, Don is the breadwinner and Betty is the homemaker.
• The "ideology of intensive motherhood" focuses more on the mother - child relationship and the high - intensity care expected of mothers, not the overall marriage model.
• "Patriarch/property marriage" is more about male - dominated property - related aspects in marriage, which is not the main focus here.
• "Job segregation" is about the division of jobs in the labor market, not the marriage model.
• For the second question:
• The "mommy track" refers to a situation where women (especially mothers) are assumed to be less committed to their careers (usually due to family responsibilities) and are thus given fewer opportunities (like in Lupita's case where her boss assumed she would want to work less and reassigned her projects).
• The "glass escalator" is a phenomenon where men in female - dominated fields are promoted more quickly.
• The "glass ceiling" is a barrier that prevents women (or minorities) from reaching the top levels of an organization, but here it's more about the assumption - based reassignment of projects (a form of being put on a slower career path, which is the mommy track).
• There is no indication that Lupita was "demoted to junior - level status" in terms of her official job title, just that her projects were reassigned.

Answer:

• First question: breadwinner/homemaker marriage
• Second question: put on the mommy track
