The correct answer would be option A, Her behavior may be adaptive.

The above mentioned statement does not characterized Mellie's experience.

Explanation:

Mellie is extremely afraid of going out of her house because she thinks that some people are following her and planning on hurting her. She is very upset because of this, and she has not been out of her house in three weeks.

Everyone in her family and neighbors is worried about her. Her behavior is upsetting to others, and her behavior is not common and acceptable socially, which means her behavior deviates from the general social norms, and also her behavior is personally distressing.

But she is not at all adaptive. If she was adaptive, then she would have adjusted in the current circumstances or situations. She would have shed off her feelings of fear which are troubling her as well her near ones. So the statement that says her behavior may be adaptive, does not characterize Mellie's experience.

Explain a way to make colonizing on Venus a possibility.
bonufazy [111]

While the two may not seem alike at first blush, Venus is quite similar to Earth compared to other planets in our solar system. So much so, the Morning Star is sometimes called Earth's "sister planet". Its gravity is 90% as strong as Earth's, compared to Mars' ~38%, meaning that our muscles won't atrophy, and our bones won't decalcify as they do in low-gravity environments. It's roughly the same size as Earth, and it's the closest planet in our solar neighborhood.

This makes Venus a tempting target for future colonization, but what about all of those deadly characteristics mentioned above? It's hard to imagine life in an atmosphere full of carbon dioxide, with no water, and at incredible heat. Not to mention that if you were to stand on its surface, the weight of the Venusian atmosphere would be the same as diving 3,000 feet underwater (which you don't want to try). There's no arguing that the surface of Venus is brutal. That's why we wouldn't live on Venus's surface.
