1. Culture is learned and acquired
e.g   Sarah has her own culture based on their family at the same time she will learn and acquired the culture presented in school so she will be able to cope-up with the school environment.

2. Culture is shared and transmitted

3. Culture is social
e.g The beliefs of a country, both religious and historical, are often at the core of a country's culture.

4. Culture is ideational
e.g The difference between the perceived ideal culture and real culture can be seen in many national governments.

The real culture is often comprised of discrimination with many individuals not being treated equally.

7. Culture tends toward integration
e.g This is when the people from a culture adopt the essence of another culture, such as its attitudes and ceremonies, while at the same time maintaining their own culture. This happens in many immigrant homes as a survival tool, regardless of where the individual moves to or is from. In terms of education, it happens when the student transfers to another school.
