Answer: Based on what I learnt in biology I believe the correct answer is brain plasticity.

Explanation:

What is brain plasticity?

Brain plasticity refers to the ability of our brain to adjust to the changes brought to us by change in situations that we experience in life.

Jerry was previously exposed to an environment that one may refer to as inappropriate for raising a child , where his mom probably brought drugs to sell in their house and also might have done her work whilst Jeremy was there.

This might have affected his ability to cope with his school work because this probably affected him mentally.

When the situation change and now he was experiencing a different environment where there is love and comfort , his brain adjusted to this positive change which yielded positive results in his school work.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

If a company's employees are found guilty of unethical behavior, the u.S. Sentencing commission can impose a base fine and multiply that fine by up to  0.05 to 4.0.

Explanation:

Ethical behavior is a person's righteous behavior. In contrast, if a person or a company doesn't follow the rules of ethics then their behavior would be termed as unethical. For example, if a company uses toxic chemicals to produce products then that would be unethical.

The U.S Sentencing Commission imposes a fine on every company whose conduct is known to be unethical. The range of the fine depends on the quality of the crime made. The fines are calculated by determining the base fine and then multiplying it by the culpability range. The culpability range could be from 0.05 to 4.0.
