Answer:

Sensory adaptation

Explanation:

Sensory adaptation is like when a person reduced sensory adaptation when a stimulus expose comes in repetition. The sensory stimulus reduced our constant stimulus exposure. Sensory adaptation reduced our awareness. In this, our all senses work together and constantly adjust what is around us These senses help us to find out what we feel around us such as aging and disease.  

Thus when you walk to the elevator you feel the powerful feel of scent which is left behind by someone. But sometimes you do not feel that smell for longer. This is the phenomenon of sensory adaptation.

Paraphrasing is repeating back to the speaker his or her words, exactly as they were said. Please select the best answer from th
Travka [436]

This statement is false.

Paraphrasing means rewriting a statement or a paragraph in your own words, without changing the meaning. It is usually done when the paraphrasing author wants to elaborate more on the subject, or he fears that the original version is too difficult to understand.

It is not a summary as summary is a shorter version of a given text. Paraphrasing includes both key points and sub points and can even be longer than the original source.

You should always cite a paraphrase, otherwise it's plagiarism as you are using somebody else's words.

Are justices truly unbiased?
Ronch [10]

For justice to be truly blind, litigants must have access to unbiased legal proceedings. Accordingly, legal decision-makers, whether jurors or judges, are expected to evaluate cases on their merits, without prejudice or preconception. ... It can be difficult, however, for a judge to assess his or her own impartiality.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer: 240

Formula:

n = [(z-value * sd)/E]^2

where n = sample size,

z-value will be 2.58 using a z-table to represent the 99% confidence interval

sd(standard deviation) = 3

E = 0.5

Substituting the parameters into the formula n = [(z-value * sd)/E]^2, we have,

n = [(2.58 ×3) ÷ 0.5]²

n = 239.63 approximately 240.
