Answer:
Louisiana had a difficult road to statehood because of disagreements over the western boundaries of the state with colonial Mexico and cultural differences with the United States.
Explanation:
President James Madison signed Louisiana into statehood with a bill dated April 30, 1812. This made Louisiana 18th state. However, in the interim between the Lousiana Purchase in 1803 and statehood in 1812, some difficulties arose like the western border dispute between Spain and the United States which even led them to hault diplomatic relations in 1805.

Answer:
a) True
Explanation:
Human behavior is extremely complex. Decades ago, researchers thought that behavior was only learned through rewards and punishments. However, after observations and experimentation, they determined that humans are also able to learn through observation. They demonstrated that we are able to learn by observing another individual, which leads to an extremely important part of our culture: imitation.
