Answer:

- the underlying patterns of relationships in a group

- Provides a social map: New group, school, work, team

Step-by-step explanation:

Social structure consist of several group of people who have their own unique/specified role within the society. These groups will form a relationship that make them really dependent upon one another. When one specific group fail to 'fulfill' their role, the society as a whole will stop functioning properly.
