The main point of the 14th Amendment is to grant citizenship to the slaves.

Answer: B

Explanation

Among all the amendments, the fourteenth amendment is the most important.

This amendment shows that every individuals born in the U.S are citizens by birth including African Americans.

This amendment is important because it was put forward at a time when slavery existed, the slaves being African Americans.

Through this many of the former slaves were provided with US citizenship.

The Civil rights of 1866 established this concept as right many years back. But it was enforced only when it became an amendment.

Four-year-old Scott fell down the stairs at his grandmother’s house. Although he was not badly hurt, he was very frightened. Now

noname [10]

Answer:

CS: The grandmother's house

UCS: The falling down the stairs.

Explanation:

Conditioning learning is an style of learning where a conditioned stimulus is associated with an unconditioned stimulus and they produce a conditioned behavioral response.

(1) In this learning, at first, the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is an stimulus that produces a response by itself in a natural way, thus, the UCS acts as a naturally occurring trigger that leads to a natural response.

(2) This natural response that the UCS triggers is called the unconditioned response (UCR), thus, the UCR is a natural response to the unconditioned stimulus.

(3) The conditioned stimulus (CS) is what comes next in the process, and this is an stimulus that does not create a response on its own but when it's paired with the UCS, and after some repetitions, it creates a response which is learned. Thus, the CS is an stimulus that becomes able to produce a learned response by being paired with the original unconditioned stimulus.

(4) This conditionally learned response that was learned because of said pairing is called conditional response (CR), thus the CR is a learned response to a conditioned stimulus.

(5) We said in paragraph (3) that the conditioned stimulus did not create a response on its own but once it's paired with the UCS it creates a learned behavior.

In this example, Scott fell down the stairs at his grandmother's house and he was very frightened. Now, whenever his parents mention visiting his grandmother's house, he feels anxious and fearful.

In this case, the UCS (stimulus that produces a response by itself in a natural way) would be the falling down the stairs which by itself triggers a response of being frightened.

On the other hand, the CS (stimulus that becomes able to produce a learned response by being paired with the original unconditioned stimulus) is the visit to the grandmother's house which by itself doesn't produce feelings of anxiety but since it was paired with Scott's accident down the stairs now it produces the response of feeling anxious and fearful).

The structures, powers, and functions of the House of Representatives and the X and these differences can affect the policymakin

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(1)..The house has more members,

(2). Easier to pass a bill in the house and (3). Majority has more power.

Explanation:

X in the question above refers to the House of Representatives. In the United States of America in which true federalism is being practiced has three arms or branches of government in the central or national Government and they are the Executive arm, the legislative and the Judicial arm. The legislative arm of government has two houses or let me say it has bicameral legislature. The reason for this is to make sure that one does not hold too much power,that is they are both meant to check and balances each other.

In order for a policy or a law to be passed, a bill has to be sent to the President. Both Chambers must agree and check each other in order for it to be passed.

In the house of Representatives, 51% majority vote is needed while the senate need 61 percent therefore, it is easier to pass a bill in the house of representative than the senate.
