Answer: A) Pruning
Explanation: Pruning in the view of neuroscientist is a process that occur through out a person's life span but more active between childhood and adulthood and slows down afterwards; it involves the reduction of synapses and neurons in the brain. It is a way of eliminating neural pathways in the brain that are no longer in use. As a child learn new things, the brain develops and become more mature, some neural connections develop and become more useful while others are no longer useful, pruning helps in removing these pathways that are no longer in use.

The correct answers are: extrinsic; intrinsic
1. Extrinsic motivation- When Carlton's motivation to attend class regularly is to avoid losing class participation points, he is extrinsically motivated. Extrinsic motivation refers to motivation that arises from external factors or rewards, rather than factors internal to a person. In this instance, Carlton's motivation to attend class stems from an external factor (not losing class participation points) rather than internal factors.
2. Intrinsic motivation- When Clarissa attends class regularly because she enjoys the activities in it, she is intrinsically motivated to attend the class. Intrinsic motivation refers to motivation that arises from factors within a person, rather than external factors or rewards. Here, Clarissa is not attending class regularly for the purpose of securing participation points or some other external rewards, she is doing so due to factors internal to her.
Answer:
People do not act or behave with predictable consistency
Explanation:
One of the general criticisms of the trait perspective is that people do not act or behave with predictable consistency. This is based on the idea that a person might act differently as predicted or expected of them given the circumstances, their personal experiences, their mental and cognitive state at that point and other such factors. Hence, the trait perspective might not be able to provide an accurate description based on habitual patterns of behavior or action or thoughts.
