Question

what is a major difference between folkways and mores? a. the number of years that the ideal has been held b. the kinds of signs used to symbolize the ideal c. the level to which the ideal is enforced d. the number of people who believe in the ideal

Explanation:

Folkways are informal norms that govern everyday behavior and have relatively mild sanctions for violations. Mores are more deeply held norms that involve moral principles and have stronger sanctions (such as social ostracism or legal consequences in some cases related to moral - legal overlaps) for non - compliance. So the key difference is in the level of enforcement (how strictly the norm is adhered to and the severity of sanctions for violation).

Answer:

C. The level to which the ideal is enforced
