Expert Solution
Step 1

Coordinated management of meaning theory or CMM theory lets us understand the social constructs and to make sense of it with the reality of the social situation in mind. This can not be assigned with morphemes and how it is stored mentally as it has to do with the lexical approach and English language rather than the management of meaning in a social context. And it could also not be how women and men communicate, as this is a frugal term to use for the explanation of this theory. And it could also not mean how ambiguity functions psychologically, as it does not have anything to do with explaining a social phenomenon.
