The typical way of life of an individual, group or culture.

• A. Imitation
• B. Global Culture
• C. Informal Social Control
• D. Lifestyle

Answer: (D)

This item is about lifestyle—the typical way people live, including daily routines, practices, and patterns that characterize a group or culture. Lifestyle captures the everyday choices and activities people share, such as work, family, leisure, dress, diet, and living arrangements, which together define how a group actually lives.

Why this is the best fit: it directly names the lived pattern of life for an individual, group, or culture, tying together how people behave on a day-to-day basis and what that says about them.

Imitation isn’t a description of a group’s typical way of life; it’s about copying others. Global culture refers to widespread cultural elements across societies, not the specific daily way a particular group lives. Informal social control describes informal methods that regulate behavior, not the overall pattern of living.
