Answer : 1. "symbolic interactionism"
Explanation :

Answer: A) symbolic interactionism Explanation: There are two types of sociological theories: 1. Macro and 2. Micro. Macro theories focus on the society as a whole and aim at establishing the general characteristics of the society. It is basically looking at the society as a whole and looking at a bigger picture. It aims to answer three basic questions: 1) What holds the societies together? 2) What are the sources of conflict in a society? 3) How do societies change? There are two branches of macro-sociological theories: consensus and conflict, with the main representative being functionalist and marxist respectively.   Micro theories on the other hand, focus on the individuals who make up the society unlike macro theory which looks at the society as a whole. Micro theories are small scale. Consider it a magnifying glass, when you look through it, you 'zoom' in to the society and see the individuals who have made up that particular society.   Symbolic interactionism is the sociological perspective which is most closely linked to microsociology.

Answer : 1. "2893"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 2893 Explanation: For solving this problem first we would break the whole range in 5 sections 1) From 1 to 9Total number of zero in this range = 0 2) From 10 to 99Total possibilities = 9*1 = 9 ( here 9 is used for the possibilities of a non zero integer) 3) From 100 to 999 - three type of numbers are there in this range a) x00 b) x0x c) xx0 (here x represents a non zero number)Total possibilities for x00 = 9*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*2 = 18for x0x = 9*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81similarly for xx0 = 81 total zeros in three digit numbers = 18 + 81 +81 = 180 4) From 1000 to 9999 - seven type of numbers are there in this rangea)x000 b)xx00 c)x0x0 d)x00x e)xxx0 f)xx0x g)x0xxTotal possibilities for x000 = 9*1*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*3 = 27 for xx00 = 9*9*1*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162 for x0x0 = 9*1*9*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162for x00x = 9*1*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162 for xxx0 = 9*9*9*1 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729for xx0x = 9*9*1*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729for x0xx = 9*1*9*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729total zeros in four digit numbers = 27 + 3*162 + 3*729 = 2700thus total zeros will be 0+9+180+2700+4 (last 4 is for 4 zeros of 10000)= 2893
