Culture
Sociologists use the term "culture" to describe the shared language, beliefs, values, norms, behaviors, and material objects passed down from one generation to the next in a society.
Culture can be broadly categorized into material and non-material culture. Material culture refers to physical objects created by a society, such as art, clothing, or tools. Non-material culture encompasses ideas, beliefs, values, norms, and language that shape a society's way of life. Both types of culture are interconnected and work together to define a group's identity and behavior.

Yes, material culture and non-material culture are typically thought to be related as they often influence and shape each other. Material culture refers to physical objects created by a society, while non-material culture includes beliefs, values, and behaviors. The two are interconnected as material objects can reflect the values and beliefs of a culture, and in turn, non-material culture can influence the creation and use of material objects.
Beliefs: Includes religious beliefs, moral values, and societal norms that guide behavior. Attitudes: Refers to the feelings and opinions people have towards certain things or people. Symbols: Objects, gestures, or language that represent abstract ideas or concepts within a culture.
Objects of the same material attract each other due to the alignment of their atoms. When two objects are brought close together, their atoms tend to align in a way that creates a small attractive force between them, known as van der Waals forces. This attraction is responsible for the objects coming together.
Material things refer to tangible objects or possessions that can be physically touched or experienced, such as clothes, electronics, furniture, or money. They are often contrasted with non-material things like emotions, beliefs, or experiences.
Objects can be classified based on their characteristics such as shape, color, size, function, material, or purpose. They can also be classified based on their relationship to other objects, their origin, or their intended use. Additionally, objects can be categorized by their properties, composition, or behavior.
Objects can be classified together based on shared characteristics such as size, shape, color, material, purpose, or function. They can also be categorized based on their relationship to one another, such as by grouping related objects or items that are used together. Additionally, objects can be classified based on their origin, location, or time period.
Material culture includes physical objects such as art, clothing, and technology that reflect a society's values and beliefs. Non-material culture involves intangible aspects like beliefs, values, norms, and language that shape how people interact and understand the world.
