The correct answer would be option C, Negative Reinforcement.

A behavioral psychologist would observe that your studying behavior has been conditioned through negative reinforcement.

Negative Reinforcement is a concept that is given by B.F Skinner. He present his theory of Operant Conditioning in which he explained about negative and positive reinforcement, and negative and positive punishment.

1. Explain why it is important to prevent deforestation of the rain forest and what steps the Brazilian government has taken to
otez555 [7]

Explanation:

Over the past nine years, the rate of deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon has dropped by 70 percent. This success has been achieved despite high beef and soy prices, which in previous years had pushed deforestation upward, and during a time that Brazil had rapid economic growth and made important progress in reducing poverty, hunger, and inequality. Brazil’s reduction in emissions from deforestation is the largest contribution so far by any country—rich or poor—to reducing global warming pollution.

The factors responsible for this accomplishment include government policies and enforcement actions by prosecutors, on both the federal and state levels; incentives created by Norway’s pledge of up to $1 billion in results-based compensation; the concerted pressure exerted by non-government organizations (NGOs) on the government and the soy and beef industries; and the positive response by those industries, resulting in the 2006 soy and 2009 beef moratoria. Political leaders, such as President Luis Inácio Lula da Silva, Minister of the Environment/2010 Green Party presidential candidate Marina Silva, the independent public prosecutors, and several state governors can also claim an important share of the credit. Ultimately, however, it was the change in the political dynamic of the deforestation issue due to years of effort by Brazilian civil society that made these actions and this success possible.

Key Concepts

Deforestation appeared to be an intractable problem for many years, with little progress in reducing it, despite many government and NGO projects and widespread global concern.

Brazil’s success has now shown that a large, rapid reduction in deforestation is possible. It has cut deforestation in the Amazon by 70 percent, compared to the average level in 1996-2005, making zero deforestation by 2020—or even sooner—a feasible goal.

Many actors deserve credit for the accomplishment. They include Presidents Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff, Environment Minister/Green Party candidate Marina Silva, state governors, independent public prosecutors, NGOs, the voluntary moratoria by the soybean and beef industries, and the results-based financing provided by Norway.

The overwhelming role of soy and beef as causes of Amazon deforestation means that successful civil society pressure on these industries’ supply chains could lead to rapid reductions in deforestation.

Brazilian civil society, including indigenous groups, rubber tappers, labor unions, and environmentalists, were able to change the political dynamics and framing of the deforestation issue. They forced governments and businesses to act and thus made the success possible.

1.)Which side (north or south) has the advantage if war were to break out between the two sides? Why?
Crazy boy [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you do not specify, we assume that you are talking about the historical time of the American Civil War in 1861. If that is the case, then the side that had the advantage, if war were to break out between the two sides would be the North.

The reason why is that the northern states developed a strong industry that allowed the federal government to provide better weapons and supplies for the Union army. These industries had the technologies and machines in the fabric to mass-produce goods that were used in the Civil War.

On teh other hand, the southern states did not have industry. They heavily depended on slavery. Landlords owned slaves that worked for long hours to produce the crops that had to be traded and exported to England. So the economy of the Sout relied on slaves and agriculture.
