FIVE MINUTES by Matt Barton

The masked man put it simply: "I'm going to kill you in five minutes," and since James had heard him say the exact same line to three of his friends--and noted with some alarm that the man had carried through on each occasion--he knew exactly what lay in store for him. He was tied down with barbwire to a rough sawed plank, but comfort mattered little now. After all, the last thing he wanted to do with his last five minutes was think about how uncomfortable he was on that stupid board. You'd think, though, that someone would've at least sanded it down a bit. And why barbwire? Was that really necessary? Why couldn't he have been killed by a killer who preferred soft nylon rope? And why, for that matter, had he been positioned facing the wall, with nothing interesting to look at? He was the only one of his friends who'd been put this way. Nothing to see but cheap wood grain paneling. It was maddening. What an insult! And, to make matters worse, he had to pee. He didn't mind not getting a "last cigarette." He didn't smoke. But he did have to pee. Jesus Christ, what a lousy way to spend five minutes.

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

According to the text, the most likely causes of precocious puberty are exposure to pollutants , exposure to phthalates  and unhealthy weight gain.

Explanation:

The age of onset of puberty has experienced significant variations over the years, mostly related to environmental changes and use of processed products.

Factors associated with precocious puberty are:

  1. Industrialization produced an increase in environmental pollutants, which has been linked to early puberty.
  2. Consumption of processed foods —which favour obesity— influences the production of hormones, that can induce early sexual maturation.
  3. Finally, some chemical additives, such as phthalates, enter the body and resemble the structure of some hormones, inducing a hormonal behavior that promotes alterations, such as an early onset of puberty.

The text also mentions negative consequences for the body when an early onset of puberty occurs.

Rergarding other options:

  • <em><u>Disruptions to the endocrine system</u></em><em> is the possible explanation for precocious puberty.</em>
  • <em><u>Certain types of cancers   and emotional and psychological problems</u></em><em> are consequences of precocious puberty.</em>

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Unconditioned stimulus.

Explanation:

Classical conditioning may be defined as a type of learning in which the potent stimulus is combined with neutral stimulus and produces a great response.

The Pavlov explains the classical conditioning learning. The sound of the bell here acts as the unconditioned stimulus because this stimulus helps the dog to salivate when combined with the strong stimulus. The neutral stimulus is here to evoke the response.

Thus, the answer is conditioned stimulus.
