Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks to identify a form of prejudice defined by physical, heritable characteristics that are socially significant.
Option 1: situational ethnicity. This term would imply ethnicity framed by a specific situation rather than a prejudice based on inherited physical traits; it doesn’t match the standard concept described. 
Option 2: racism. This is the correct choice. Racism is the belief or practice that inherent differences among groups—often tied to hereditary or physical characteristics—justify unequal treatment, and it operates on socially significant, inherited traits. 
Option 3: discrimination. While discrimination involves treating people unfairly based on group membership, it is a behavior or practice, not the prejudice itself tied specifically to inherited physical traits; discrimination can occur for various reasons beyond biology. 
Option 4: symbolic prejudice. This term would refer to prejudice expressed through symbols or attitudes rather than directly to biologically inherited characteristics, so it does not precisely capture the described form of prejudice. 
Overall, the description in the stem aligns with racism, which centers on observable, inherited physical characteristics used to rank or marginalize groups.
