Answer (2)

Discrimination is when groups are unfairly treated without regard to their behavior or qualifications. This unfair treatment can lead to societal issues such as inequality. Other terms like ethnicity or homogeneity do not capture the unfairness involved. ;

The correct term for treating groups differently without regard to their behavior or qualifications is discrimination. Discrimination implies unfair judgment based on characteristics rather than abilities. While related terms like ethnicity and disparity exist, they do not specifically represent the unfair nature of treatment described.
