Expert Solution

Step 1

Culture refers to ideas, beliefs, customs, etc. that are collectively shared by the people of a society. The culture of a society is passed down from older generations to younger generations. Cultural heritages are also built by the people in order to let people know of their culture in the upcoming time. Some cultural ideas and customs are still intact and followed just like the people of old ages. Whereas some cultural values and customs changed with time.
