    Family is one of the most basic social institutions found in all societies. Kinship refers to relationships based on blood or marriage. There are two main types of kinship - consanguineal kinship based on blood relationships, and affinal kinship based on marriage. Descent refers to biological relationships between parents and offspring, while lineage traces one's ancestral descent along either their father's line (patrilineal) or mother's line (matrilineal), or both lines (bilateral). Marriage is an important social institution that publicly declares a couple's lifelong union, and societies practice different forms of marriage including monogamy, polygamy, endogamy within a group, or exogamy outside a group

    It is one of the basic social institutions found in every


    society.

    The most basic bonds are those based on marriage and


    reproduction. Kinship refers to these bonds, and all
    other relationships resulting from them. Thus, the
    institution of kinship refers to a set of relationships and
    relatives formed thereof, based on blood relationships
    (consanguineal), or marriage (affinal).
    Consanguineal kinship- kinship based on
    blood is considered as the most basic and
    general form of relations. This relationshipis
    achieved bu birth or blood affinity.
    Descent refers to a biological relationship.
    Societies recognize that children descend
    from parents and that there exists a biologicl
    relationship between parents and offspring.

    Lineage refers to the line where one’s


    descent is traced.
    Symbols used by anthropologists to study patterns of
    descent and kin groups
    Unilinear Descent is a system of determining descent
    groups in which one belongs to one's father's or
    mother's line, whereby one's descent is traced either
    exclusively through male ancestors (patriline), or
    exclusively through female ancestors (matriline).

    Bilateral Descent some societies trace their descent


    through the study of both parents ancestors. In a
    baliteral descent, kinship is traced through both
    ancestral lines of the mother and father.
    Affinal Kinship refers to type of relations
    developed when marriage occurs. When
    marriage takes place new forms of social
    relations are developed.
    Marriage- is an important social institution
    wherein two persons, enter into family life.
    During this process, the partners make a
    public, official and permanent declaration of
    their union as lifetime couples.

    Endogamy is the practice of marrying within a specific ethnic group, class, or social
    group, rejecting others on such a basis as being unsuitable for marriage or for other
    close personal relationships.
    Exogamy is the custom of marrying outside a community, clan, or tribe.
    Monogamy and Polygamy
    Monogamy- refers to the marriage of sexual partnering practice where the
    individual has only one male of female partner or mate.
    Polygamy- refers to the practice of having more than one partner or sexual mate. It
    can be polygyny (a man has multiple partner) or polyandry (a woman has multiple
    mate).

    one of the following types (each of which must consist of persons living in the
    same household):
    a. A married couple without children,
    b. A married couple with one or more unmarried children,
