The Correct Option is C

Concept:
Sociology studies human society, social behaviour, institutions, and interactions.

Step 1:
Sociologists are interested in all forms of social behaviour and social relationships. \[ A \text{ is correct} \]

Step 4:
Economics mainly studies economic resources and development, whereas philosophy studies ideas, logic, and values.
