Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Equity theories can be applied to social exchange relationships in organizations, which involve exchanges of non-monetary benefits such as support, recognition, and friendship. Political, economical, and cultural exchanges are not necessarily based on the same principles of equity and fairness as social exchanges, and may require different analytical frameworks to understand.
