Answer:

operant conditioning

Explanation:

Operant conditioning, also called instrumental conditioning, is a learning method that makes use of the association of reinforcements (rewards) and punishments with a particular behavior or pattern of behavior. Through operant conditioning, an association is made between a behavior and a consequence of that behavior. This method is widely used in animal training.

Operant conditioning is based on a simple premise: actions followed by reinforcement will tend to repeat themselves. On the other hand, actions that result in unintended punishments or consequences will weaken and are less likely to occur again in the future.

An example: When a lab rat presses a blue button, he receives a food ball as a reward, but when he presses the red button, he receives a slight electric shock. As a result, he learns to press the blue button but avoids the red button.

Dmitrij [34]
The answer is <span>A) All future somatic cells of the organism will contain the (2n + 1) number of chromosomes. 

An egg cell and a sperm cell fuse to develop a new organism in a process called a fertilization. As a result, a zygote is formed. When the </span>egg cell containing the (n+1) number of chromosomes combines with a sperm cell containing the (n) number of chromosomes, the zygote will have (n + n + 1), which is (2n + 1) number of chromosomes. The zygote is  the first cell of the new organism. It undergoes mitosis resulting in somatic cells where all of them will contain the same <span>number of chromosomes as the zygote, which is (2n + 1)</span>

Westerlies blow at a curve between 10 and 60 degrees north and south of the equator. What prevents these winds from blowing in a
julia-pushkina [17]

The correct answer is option A, that is, the Earth is spinning on its axis.  

The westerlies refer to the prevailing winds that blow from the west to the east in the mid-latitudes, that is, in between 10 and 60 degrees. The wind blows from the regions of higher pressure to the region of lower pressure, but it does not blow in a straight line.  

This is generally because the Earth is rotating on its axis. The spin of the Earth makes winds to bend towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards the left in the southern hemisphere. This is known as the Coriolis effect.
