Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mead's activities with labor problems and public education demonstrate applied sociology, as he used sociological principles and research to address practical issues in society. While these activities may also relate to social inequality, this term is too broad to be the best answer. Basic sociology refers to the study of sociological questions for their own sake, without necessarily applying the findings to specific issues or problems. Mead's activities go beyond this definition. Therefore, B is the most appropriate answer.
