The aspect of culture signifies the continuous nature of acquired, influenced and innate characteristics of societal individuals. This is because there is a continuation of the societal norms and standards by human beings in future generations as far as the concept of culture is concerned. If there is a lack of continuation of common features, it cannot be defined as culture. There has to be moral values which will have to be adhered to by individuals for being a part of a particular culture.
