Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Gender refers to the social and cultural distinctions that are made on the basis of sex. It is primarily learned from and socially reinforced by others through socialization processes such as parenting, education, media, and peer groups. Race, age, and sex are also learned and socially reinforced, but to a lesser extent than gender.
