Answer 1

The availability of many alternatives to a partner in a relationship "increases that partner's social power".

Step-by-step explanation:

Social power is the degree to which an individual can influence others or resist being influenced by others.

When a partner in a relationship (say partner A) has many alternatives, then the influence the other partner (say partner B) will have over partner A will decrease.

As such, partner A's social power increases.
