<span>The correct answer is d) shake with fear. Classical conditioning is a learning process in which a stimulus that has biological significance (meaning it concerns survival) is associated with a stimulus that had been previously neutral of biological significance. For example, food is a biologically potent stimulus because we inherently want and need food. On the other hand, a bell is a neutral stimulus, because by itself it means nothing to us (we have no need for it). However, once we learn that the dinner bell ringing means food is being served, we associate the bell (a previously neutral stimulus) with food (a biologically potent stimulus). So, in the case of this question, Mikaya is associating the dock (a previously neutral stimulus) with the alligators that she saw (a biologically potent stimulus). Although this is a more negative example, in which the biologically potent stimulus is something that threatens survival, it still demonstrates classical conditioning. </span>

The answer is:  

a) The alligators are the unconditioned stimulus (UCS), the alligators are the stimulus in the environment that produced a behavior (fear).  

b) The dock, before the conditioning is the neutral stimulus (NS) because it had no effect on Mikaya before the conditioning happened.  

c) The dock after the conditioning is the conditioned stimulus (CS) because after the conditioning it is associated with the unconditioned stimulus, in this case the alligators, and now produces the same response, in this case, fear.  

d) Shake with fear is the conditioned response (CR) is the response that is produced when the conditioned stimulus (the dock) is associated with the unconditioned stimulus (the alligators).

e) Heart pounding with fear is the unconditioned response (UCR), that is the response that Mikaya experimented before the conditioning, when she first saw the alligators.

Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

1) Making Inferences In what ways do you think the events during Elizabeth’s youth molded her character?

- Although these events somewhat traumatized the Princess, they also molded her into a strong, independent personality.

Explanation:

2) Interpreting Significance Queen Elizabeth’s refusal to marry was a controversial political decision at the time. Why? Why might Elizabeth have chosen to remain single?

- Because there could not be a queen in a monarchy before a country without a king, it was necessary if or if (male chauvinism of the time). Moreover, Elizabeth decided not to marry anyone, because her greatest wish was to be committed to her country, to be loved and respected by its inhabitants/citizens; and to reign on the throne of England until the day she died.

Which of the following was a motive for European exploration between 1400 and 1800? A. The wealth that could be made through tra
loris [4]

Among the 12th and 15th centuries, the European economy was transformed by the interconnecting of river and sea trade routes, producing Europe to become one of the world's most wealthy trading networks. Before the 12th century, the main obstacle to trade east of the Strait of Gibraltar was the absence of commercial incentive rather than inadequate ship design.

Many lands previous unfamiliar to Europeans were discovered by them during this period, though most were already populated. European overseas exploration directed to the advance of global trade and the European colonial empires, with the contact between the Old World (Europe, Asia, and Africa) and the New World (the Americas and Australia).

To sum up, The wealth that could be made through trade was the major motive for the European exploration between 1400 and 1800, letter A.
