The answer is option A "<span>Her stomach rumbled like an approaching train." Smiles are two things being compared but using the words like or as, in this case they are comparing her stomach, and a train. (also having like in the sentence) Also remember the metaphors are also comparing two things but they do NOT have like or as, only similes.

Hope this helps!

dsp73

Answer:

Barbiturates.

Explanation:

As the exercise briefly explains, barbiturates are depressants with various legitimate medical uses, such as relief from pain, anxiety, and tension, but people can become rapidly dependent on them. This type of drug, a barbiturate, acts as a depressant for the central nervous system and, even if relieves pain, anxiety and tension, it can also develop a rapid addiction to them, with a high percentage of overdose potential and more side effects.

An immediate increase in frequency and/or amplitude of the response after the removal of the maintaining reinforcer is called a.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a. Extinction Burst.

Explanation:

Extinction burst occurs when a reinforced behavior of the past increases when the maintaining reinforcer is removed. In other words, we can say extinction burst has to do with behavior elimination by the removal of what reinforces it.

For example, if a child had always gotten a sweet to calm him of his tantrum, but this time around, the parents stopped giving sweet, because the conditioned response is no more yielding results; when the child notices the sweet is not given anymore, the child is forced to stop his tantrum. This is a classic example of extinction burst.

In order to control extinction burst in children, consistency and patience are key.

What does fertile mean? Why would Sumerians settle on fertile land? The Fertile Crescent is a region. Why does it fit into that
balandron [24]
Hey there!

Fertile means very suitable for farming - in other words, very rich and full of nutrients plants and food need to grow. When you say soil is fertile, often that means it's capable of producing massive food surpluses due to the fact that it can grow so much.

It's a region because it has the two rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates around it. Unlike other regions around the area, the soil was unnaturally fertile, and that's why it takes up it's own region because it's not the same anywhere else.

It's a physical region. Humans did not create it, and the soil is part of what makes it physical. The settlers used the soil, but didn't make it.

Hope this helps!
