    • Roles refer to job duties.

    • Roles are all equally important.

    Correct Answer
    A. Roles change over time.

    Roles change over time because as individuals grow and develop, their responsibilities and obligations also evolve. Different stages of life bring new roles and expectations, such as being a student, a parent, or a professional. Additionally, societal and cultural changes can also impact the roles individuals play in their communities and relationships. Therefore, it is true that roles are not static and undergo transformations as individuals progress through life.

    • Bradley found out his mom was telling his teacher about something he didn't want her to share.

    • Kayla's teacher told the class to use Google classroom for a link, but also printed articles out for students without internet.

    • John told his son to be home on time, then sent him a reminder text an hour before curfew.

    Explanation
    The example of a mixed message in this scenario is Miranda rolling her eyes at her brother and telling him he was stupid, but laughing at his joke.

    Correct Answer

    What is true about Maslow's Hierarchy of Human Needs? 

    • Every human goes through needs differently and can be in higher levels without meeting lower levels.

    • Humans must start from the bottom and work their way up one at a time.

    • It is common that adults are usually in the self-actualization level.

    • Most people spend their whole lives trying to meet the first two level of needs in Maslow's Hierarchy.

    Correct Answer
    A. Humans must start from the bottom and work their way up one at a time.
    Explanation
    Maslow's Hierarchy of Human Needs suggests that individuals must start from the bottom of the hierarchy and fulfill their basic physiological needs before moving up to higher levels. This means that one cannot skip levels and must satisfy each level in sequence. The hierarchy includes five levels: physiological needs, safety needs, love and belongingness needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs. Each level builds upon the previous one, and individuals must meet their lower-level needs before they can progress to higher levels. Therefore, the statement that humans must start from the bottom and work their way up one at a time aligns with the concept of Maslow's Hierarchy of Human Needs.
