In the context of operant conditioning, negative reinforcement is defined as an increase in the frequency of a behavior because it is followed by the removal of something undesirable.

Negative reinforcement happens an aversive (negative) stimulus is removed as a result of preferred response, which in turn increases the original behavior (response)’s frequency. In order words, negative reinforcement improves the target behavior by removing the aversive action. It is a component of operant conditioning theory of learning which also includes positive reinforcement. There are two types of negative reinforcement. Escape occurs when a behavior is performed to end an aversive action. Avoidance learning occurs when a behavior is performed to prevent an aversive action. An example of negative reinforcement is taking an antacid before eating spicy food.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

As far as there is technology, there is also food technology. This means there are going to be more and more discoveries even in the type of food we eat and how it is prepared. Varieties are the spice of life as believed so if its dinner time in 2040, I believe something different will be served unlike what I have been eating now. I don't see any much change but there is an advancement in the toasted meat as it is more softer and sweeter with some oils gushing out as it sits on the place looking at me.
