    Symbolic Interactionism is the sociological theory that tries to explain social behavior in the way people interact with each other via symbols.

    Social Conflict is the struggle for power in a society between two individuals or two groups.

    The correct answer is B. Structural Functionalism. In a study of education in the US functionalists would look at the role the schools play in maintaining the social system as a whole, how education provides the yound with skills they need alter in life, and how it transmits cultural values from one generation to the next. On the other hand, in a study of homelessness in American society, theorists of a social conflict would emphasize the struggle between social classes, especially how the policies of the wealthy protect their interests while pushing certain groups into unemployment and homelessness.
