Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term gender refers to the characteristics, behaviors, and attributes that a society or culture considers appropriate for males and females. These characteristics can vary between cultures and can be influenced by both biology and social factors. Sex (choice A) generally refers to the biological differences between males and females. Sexual orientation (choice C) refers to a person's emotional and sexual attraction to others, which can include people of the same or opposite sex. Culture (choice D) refers to the shared values, beliefs, behaviors, and customs that characterize a group or society. While culture can influence gender roles and expectations, it is not the specific term used to describe the characteristics of male and female.
