Social stratification is a characteristic of society, is maintained through beliefs that are widely shared by members of society. and different societies use different criteria for ranking their members. Persists over generations.

Explanation:

Social stratification in its most general sense is a sociological concept that refers to the fact that both individuals and groups of individuals are conceived as constitutive of greater or lesser degree, differentiated into strata or classes in terms of some specific or generalized characteristic. or in a set of features. That means that societies are what determine social stratifications. Another characteristic is that it is transmitted from generation to generation, for example Mark Zuckerberg will probably pass his wealth to his children and therefore social stratification will continue his cycle and thus from generation to generation.
