Emile Durkheim, when writing about mechanical solidarity, meant that D) people are basically alike. This is because people actually rely on each other in advanced society, and that order and solidarity in society depends on their reliance on each other to perform their specific tasks. This makes us all alike and need to rely on each other in the same way and the same amount.
