"The caste system is structured in terms of the businesses. It resulted in social inequality for people because it didn't allow for a person to move up in social class." Answer to question 16.
I apologize, but the answer provided is not entirely correct. The caste system is a social structure in which people are born into different classes or castes based on their family's traditional occupations. The system has four main castes: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and farmers) and Shudras (laborers). Below the four main castes is another group known as the Dalits or "untouchables," who were considered so low in status that they were excluded from the caste system altogether.
One reason the caste system results in social inequality is that someone's occupation is determined by their caste, so there are limitations on what jobs people can have. Additionally, the caste system often reinforces discrimination and prejudice, leading to unequal treatment and opportunities for those of lower castes.
I think this article on the BBC does a great job of explaining this topic at a glance:
