Answer 1

1) Rachel’s perception of her friend’s behavior is based on a A. Constitutive rule.

A constitutive rules show the conditions that are to be met in order for certain statuses to be met. Lower-level entities and higher-level entities differentiate based on the rules.

Proxemics is a nonverbal communication because it refers to space and how we utilize it. When Nathan arranges his items on his shelf and hanging photos, he is arranging his objects in his allotted space.
