A) social
B) political

Social context refers to the shared values, beliefs, customs, behaviors, and demographic characteristics of a particular group or society. Demographics, norms, and lifestyles are all aspects of the social context that have a significant impact on consumer behavior and preferences. Marketers need to be aware of these factors in order to develop effective marketing strategies that resonate with their target audience. Political, physical, and regulatory contexts are also important, but they are not as directly related to consumer behavior and preferences as the social context is.
