They are the truth of pain, the truth of suffering's cause, the reality of suffering's resolution, and the truth of the way to suffering's resolution.

The idea of suffering is meant to communicate a pragmatic attitude that deals with the world as it is and works to make it better, not a pessimistic one. Although not rejected, the idea of pleasure is accepted as transient. What is essentially an unquenchable hunger can only be continued by the pursuit of pleasure. The same reasoning disproves any notion of happiness. The only things that are inevitable and certain in the end are age, illness, and death.

The domain of man also provides enlightenment, or Nirvana, as an opportunity, which is absent from the other five planes. Given the vast number of living things, Buddhists view being born a human as a rare opportunity for spiritual joy that one should not waste.

A deontologist wants to hurry across busy traffic to make a meeting she is late for but doesn’t want to wait for the "walk" sign
aev [14]

The correct answer is "Should all people late for important meetings ignore crosswalk signals?"

The concept of categorical imperative was developed by the German philosopher <u>Immanuel Kant</u>, as the central concept of his deontology, an aspect of moral philosophy that deals with duties. Kant's goal was to define a way to assess the motivations for human action at all times in life. An imperative would be any proposition that declares a particular action as necessary, based on this notion Kant divides the imperatives into two categories: categorical and hypothetical.

Those maxims that would be acceptable as a universal law, and can be considered adequate motivation for human action, would be categorical imperatives, implying an absolute and unconditional demand. This cannot be disobeyed, no matter the circumstances, being an end in itself, that is, no other purpose can justify disobedience and the categorical imperative needs no other justification. Unlike hypothetical imperatives, which have application when we want to achieve a certain end, for example, if we want to acquire knowledge, it is imperative that we learn. The hypothetical imperative is linked to the end, or the purpose, desired by the one who acts, thus facilitating the decision of what the correct action to take, is hypothetical because, once the agent has no interest in accomplishing that end, or not the necessary action is taken to carry it out, there is no obligation to follow it. In this sense, it is optional and conditioned to our inclinations.

If rats are allowed to wander through a complicated maze, they will subsequently run the maze with few errors when a food reward
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

latent learning

Explanation:

Their good performance demonstrates latent learning. Meaning that since the rats were allowed to wander the maze they were learning how to navigate its complicated path the more time they spent there. Once the food was introduced as a reward, the rats began demonstrating how much of the maze they learned and memorized by quickly navigating their way through it for the food. They didn't demonstrate their knowledge of the maze before because they had no motivation to do so, until the food was introduced.
