The correct answer here is 2. The IRB must approve the experiment. Whether the experiment is on humans or on animals it must be approved. The IRB will examine the proposed experiment and its methodology in order to see does the experiment meet the ethical standards. Conducting ethical research is of the paramount importance.

The correct answer would be 2. However there is a correction on that statement, only vertebrates and human requires an IRB before a research is granted. This is also required for researches that are funded by the government. Since the rat is a vertebrae, it is included in the IRB requirement.

Answer:

a. differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors

Explanation:

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors is an approach that involves replacing a problem behavior with a positive behavior by reinforcing and stimulating a positive behavior that cannot be exhibited the same time with the problem behavior. Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors works well especially in cases of people having autism spectrum disorder (ASD) where the individual engages in problem behaviors that inflict injury on the individual.

From the question above, the therapist uses the differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors approach, as he uses praise as a reinforcement to increase the frequency at which Zander chews gum or sticks out his tongue, as these behaviors cannot occur together with the behavior of biting of lips. Chewing of gum, sticking out of tongues are reinforced in order to replace the biting of lips with them.

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The answer is "C. proteins"

This pathogen consists of a single strand of Ribonucleic Acid (RMA) but are different from a virus since it does not have a protein coat that other viruses have. They consist of only nucleic acids. Other than this, Viroids also RMA that have catalytic capabilities which allows them to have self-cleaving properties.
