Explanation:

In Mexico, there is a history of colorism and social stratification related to skin color, where those with more Indigenous - appearing (darker) skin often face social prestige disparities. Option a is incorrect as they don't get higher social status. Option b is wrong as administrative jobs are more likely for those with lighter skin or higher social status. Option d is not a typical broad - based issue related to skin color for long - term employment. Option e is incorrect as they are not favored over lighter - skinned people in the labor force.
