Solution

The correct answer is a. Mores. Mores are norms that are widely observed and have great moral significance. They are considered vital to the functioning of a society and its social life. While folkways are also norms, they are related to everyday, casual interactions and are not considered to have the same moral significance. Values, on the other hand, are abstract concepts of what is considered good, right, and desirable in a society. They are not norms, but rather, they guide the behavior that may become established as norms.
