Question

identify the true and false statements about social constructs. true statement(s) only something that is unique to a particular culture can be a social construct. the weekend is an example of a social construct. americans agree on the meaning of many social constructs. social constructs are always intangible, but have real consequences.

Explanation:

1. Analyze "Only something that is unique to a particular culture can be a social construct": Social constructs can be shared across cultures (e.g., the concept of time in work schedules), so this is false.
2. Analyze "The weekend is an example of a social construct": The weekend is a socially defined time (not a natural/biological division), so this is true.
3. Analyze "Americans agree on the meaning of many social constructs": While there can be debates, many social constructs (e.g., "justice" in basic legal terms, "family" in general) have shared understandings among Americans, so this is true.
4. Analyze "Social constructs are always intangible, but have real consequences": Social constructs can be related to tangible things (e.g., the value of money is a social construct, and money itself is tangible), so "always intangible" is false.

True statements: "The weekend is an example of a social construct", "Americans agree on the meaning of many social constructs"

Answer:

True Statement(s):

• The weekend is an example of a social construct.
• Americans agree on the meaning of many social constructs.
