	Although it is difficult to pinpoint exactly, what we call "modernity", it is not usually associated with the era of industrialization and the time when sociology was developed by its founders.
	
Explicação:
Modernity is indeed fraught with ambiguities, while offering security, offering danger, offering trust, and offering risk. We are affected by a dizzying pace of change where the advance of intercommunication puts us in connection with different parts of the globe without, however, the development of the forces of production having brought a significant improvement in the quality of life of men.

Explicação:
Culture is a concept of various meanings, being the most current, especially in anthropology, constituting itself as all that complex that includes knowledge, beliefs, art, morality, law, customs and all other habits and capacities acquired by man as a member of society. It is an extremely complex concept and impossible to be fixed in a unique way. Being so, all the alternatives point out an aspect that has to do with the concept of culture.

	A rise in the importance of science

Explicação:
Modernity is typical of the great centers and metropoles in which the speed of events, the multiplicity of realities, personal and groups conflicts explode at every moment as a result of a fleeting experience and contrasted with an inhospitable environment and questions certainties. Coexistence, contrary to what happens in small cities, is diluted and individualism is opposed to the association of peers in a coexistence marked by the long and lasting relationship between individuals
