Answer 2

Option A) Prejudice

A stereotype is based on Prejudice.

• A prejudice is an opinion—typically a negative one—that was formed before any relevant information was available and that is not supported by logic or personal experience.
• A bias relates to feelings and attitudes about a person or group of people, whereas a stereotype is a notion about that person or group of people. Prejudices frequently stem from the perception that some groups of individuals are less valuable or competent than others.
• A stereotype is an opinion that someone has about a certain group of people that may or may not be true.
• Stereotypes are comparable to caricatures, which are depictions that emphasise some traits while oversimplifying others, thus obscuring the true nature of the subject. Although many stereotypes are commonly accepted, they are also oversimplified representations of a specific sort of person. A stereotype is any time we lump people together and generalise or pass judgement on them without actually knowing them.
