Solution

The correct option is B Social Inequality
Social inequality means the presence of unequal opportunities and resources for different people sorted in various groups in the society. Social inequality exists because of complex social stratification wherein society is hierarchically divided into different strata. Some people get ample opportunities and resources based on their social position and status whereas others are deprived of what should be rightfully their share.
