Question

Americans typically find that they are members of two nuclear families. These are families of A. matrilinearity and patrilinearity. B. kin and other distant relatives.

C. exogamy and endogamy. D. orientation and procreation.

Answer 1

D. orientation and procreation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The family of orientation refers to the siblings of the spouses and the siblings of the parents or the other members of the family who are not born out of marriage or relationship between the parents. On the other hand, the family of procreation is that family that is formed through marriage and through a born baby. An adopted child will also come under the family of procreation. Hence, the family of procreation is one that you have decided for yourself while the family of orientation is the one that was given to you or you were born into and you did not choose.
