Explanation / Answer
Q1 answered below.
Prejudice and discrimination refer to the negative attitude of the society against any particular caste, class, idea or notion.
One of the examples of prejudice I encountered during my visit to Saudi Arabia is that females over there are not allowed to drive and need to be accompanied by a male while going out of their homes and also need to be fully covered from hand to toe.
This is a clear case of prejudice seen in these societies where there are so much strict rules from the women while none for men.
