A petty crime is a minor infraction of the law. For example, driving without following traffic rules, selling on stalls without permission etc. is an offense

Petty crimes have been defined under Section 2(45) to mean offences for which the maximum punishment provided under any law including the IPC, is imprisonment up to 3 years

Serious offences' include those offences for which punishment under any law is imprisonment between 3 to 7 years. It include assault, robbery, murder, burglary etc.

On the basis of impact and circumstances the act of offense has been done, above the classification of the offence whether it comes under petty crime or serious offence, it could  be better decided for the punishment at the discretion of judiciary to decide the type and quantum of the punishment.

_____ is evidence of learning and memory, in that a stimulus loses its novelty only if the infant remembers the stimulus from on
olasank [31]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

Habituation is evidence of learning and memory, in that a stimulus loses its novelty only if the infant remembers the stimulus from one presentation to the next.

If we refer to psychological terms, habituation means that when a stimulus is present, the answer to it diminishes when the stimulus is repeated again and again. It simpler terms, you become used to that stimulus that it is barely noticed. For instance, when you are about to go to sleep, and there is a party close to your home. At first, you notice the music but after some time, you get used to it and go to sleep with no problems at all.
