Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Crowds in adolescence typically involve members being sorted into various categories or groups based on similar interests or activities, such as "jocks" or "nerds." Crowds are larger than cliques and may include individuals who are not necessarily friends with each other. This phenomenon is common in Western countries.
