Solution

The correct answer is d. Ranked Society. In a ranked society, wealth is not stratified, meaning it is not divided into different levels or classes. However, prestige and status are still important and can vary among individuals or groups. This is different from an egalitarian society, where all members are equal, and from systems of redistribution and reciprocity, which are methods of distributing resources rather than types of societies.
