Answer:

The correct answer is A. The statement is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gender is part of the social structure of social and cultural practices in which both reflect and reinforce assumptions about the differences between men and women. In general terms, and as a reference to any society, gender stratification gives rise to an unequal distribution, depending on whether the person is male or female, of power, prestige, wealth, where appropriate, or privileges in general, which results in men and women occupying different positions in the social hierarchy. This hierarchy can be prestigious but also economic. In terms of pay, women commonly have lower social stability, with less power, wealth, income, prestige, and personal freedom.
