Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The electronic space of Internet has failed to displace the Institutional space in a society even an iota.
Statement I: The Internet communication has broken down the hierarchies of race, ethnicity and gender
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Correct option is D

The correct answer is (d), "Statement I is false but Statement II is true".
Statement I claims that the electronic space of the Internet has not displaced the institutional space in society at all. This is false. The Internet has significantly impacted various societal institutions, including education, commerce, communication, and media. It has enabled remote learning, online shopping, global communication, and digital media consumption, fundamentally changing how these institutions operate.
Statement II asserts that Internet communication has broken down the hierarchies of race, ethnicity, and gender. While the Internet hasn't completely eradicated these hierarchies, it has certainly contributed to breaking them down. Online platforms and social media have given voice to marginalized communities, allowed for more diverse representation, and facilitated discussions about race, ethnicity, and gender issues. Thus, Statement II is true, acknowledging the role of the Internet in challenging and changing traditional hierarchies, though it's important to note that these issues still persist to some degree.
