✓

Answer

  • Human society is a society limited to human beings while non-human society includes animals, birds, insects etc.
  • Non-human societies have universal similarities.
  • While there is universal isolation in human society.
  • That is to say, there are similarities in the same non-human society of different countries or regions.
  • For example, there is a resemblance between the lion community of India and the lion community of Africa.
  • But in human society, even in a country or region, there are differences between marriage, religion, customs, caste.
$(1)$ Continuity through reproduction:
  • Human beings and human society come together with new members through reproduction and that is the continuity of that social system.
$(2)$ Division of labor is based on heredity:
  • The division of labor in non-human societies is genetic and simple.
  • While in human society the division of labor is gender based and complex.
  • E.g. The man's job is to provide sustenance, finance and protection.
  • So the woman's job is housework and childcare.
$(3)$ There is unity and cooperation in society:
  • Both societies have a spirit of cooperation, tolerance and cooperation.
  • There are laws, police systems to maintain unity in human society.
  • Which is not the case in non-human society.

  • Non-human society communicates with body contact or gestures.
  • While human society communicates through writing, gestures, symbols, conversations, audio-visual media.
  • Human society learns faster than non-human society.
  • Its learning process takes place through memory, intellect and language.
  • In a non-human society, social heritage does not pass from generation to generation.
