Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Stereotypes and prejudice may create discrimination. Stereotyping and prejudice begin from social categorization—the natural cognitive process by which we place individuals into social groups. Social categorization influences our perceptions of groups—for instance, the perception of outgroup homogeneity.
