a. the consequence that an element of society produces for the maintenance of its social system.

Explanation:

Functions are results as groups of society interact in a social system that works together as a whole to seek stability.

Emilie Durkheim, Spencer, and Parsons are the main ponents of this view, and they state that society is held together as a set of values , a language, and symbols are common to all members of a given society.

The functions are part of a consensus where a social order is present and keeps stable and organized individuals who share the values in common.  

Every persons acting in a individual level then contribute in their role or function to a society that relies on them , interdependant working together as a system that advocates balance and a social order.
