It will result in a anterograde amnesia: Loss of ability to form new memories, although older memories may be safe. But, someone who sustains an injury to the hippocampus may have good memory of his/her childhood and the years before the injury, but relatively little memory for anything that happened since.

I hope this helps :)

Most food items have a water content. Even seemingly 'solidified' foods such as a piece of bread or bun have a certain water content in them.

One of the most useful generalizations in psychology is that "behavior is adaptive." Explain this generalization and describe ho
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The generalization that "behavior is adaptive" is not new. It has been used to describe many psychological processes. The first one is cognitive dissonance. In psychology, cognitive dissonance occurs when a person holds contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values and is typically experienced as psychological stress when they participate in an action against one or more of them. The second one is conformity, the tendency for people to yield to real or imagined social pressure. Displaced aggression is taking aggression out on a person that had nothing to do with the conflict he/she is upset about. The fourth one is in-group bias, which is the act of favoring one's group over other groups, where group membership is defined as an individual's perceived identification with a social group's qualities, goals, or morals. The mere exposure effect is the sixth term. This is a psychological phenomenon by which people tend to prefer things merely because they are familiar with them. This effect is also sometimes classed familiarity principle in social psychology. In psychology, prejudice is the preconceived judgment, opinion, or attitude toward certain people based on their membership in a particular group. It is a set of attitudes, which supports, causes, or justifies discrimination. Social loafing in social psychology is the phenomenon of a person exerting less effort to achieve a goal when they work in a group than when working alone. It is seen as one of the main reasons groups are sometimes less productive than the combined performance of their members working as individuals. These all support the generalization that "behavior is adaptive" because all of them can be considered adaptive.
