Answer:

Caroline's statement best describes her understanding of her gender role.

Explanation:

Gender role refers to the beliefs about what is appropriate and what is expected for each gender, such as activities, behaviors and emotions, amongst others.

Some examples include:

  • Boys do sports and cannot show much emotion, they must be tough.
  • Girls do dance or artistic activities and they take care of the boys.

In this case, Caroline believes the gender role in which a woman has to take care of the family because "that's what girls are supposed to do". This is an example of a gender role belief.
