Answer:

Folkway; More

Step-by-step explanation:

Mores are largely observed by a given culture. It determines whether a culture is morally acceptable. Mores wields more effect than Folkways as it portrays the differences between good and bad vis-a-vis what is acceptable. Examples are our religious doctrines and the belief that discrimination based on race, color, and sex is unethical.

Folkway is a way of living, acting, and thinking in a society that is adopted and accepted over a period of time. It is the habit of people that has grown into a lifestyle due to constant use and practice. This means repetition and routines produce a Folkway. It is largely an unconscious behavior until it becomes a norm. Examples are taking turns to speak in public, waiting in line on queues, etc.
