Answer from: tannersclark

Ascribed status :achieved status

Explanation

Ascibed status

A social position or person receives at birth or takes involuntarily later in life; matters of which we have no choice. They influence the statuses that we achieve. For example, being a daughter, a Cuban, a teenager, or a widower.

Achieved status

A social position a person takes voluntarily that reflects personal ability and effort. For example, in the United States, it includes honors students, Olympic athletes, nurses, software writers, and thieves. In the real world, most statuses involve a combo of script ion and achievement. For example, people who achieve the status of lawyer are likely to share the ascribed benefit of being born into relatively well-off families.
