Answer:

c. classical conditioning

Explanation:

In psychology, the term classical conditioning refers to a form of learning in which a stimulus is paired with another one to create a learned behavior.

The first stimulus creates a natural response by itself and it's called the unconditioned stimulus that creates an unconditioned response. However, this stimulus is paired to another one (conditioned stimulus) and the same response that appeared naturally at first starts appearing when the new stimulus appears (conditioned response).

In this example, Ashley is on an elevator and <u>she gets trapped inside, this situation obviously creates a response of fear on her (unconditioned response).</u> However, <u>now Ashley refuses to ride on any elevator because she is afraid.</u> We can see that <u>this response has become a conditioned response in the presence of any elevators</u> and therefore this is an example of classical conditioning learning.

Throughout The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, both Jim and Huck are seeking freedom. Define freedom. Describe what freedom mean
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Freedom can be best defined by the state of an individual being free of any restrictions in his daily life.

Huck and Jim has differing ideas of freedom, the former wanting freedom from civilization and being free to go on adventures while Jim wants to be free of his slave position, working for Miss Watson.

Both characters achieved their goals, as both ends being set free at the end of the story.

Explanation:

In Mark Twain's novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", both of the main characters desire freedom and are looking to free themselves and get themselves their own liberty. But even though both Huck and Jim wants freedom, their definitions of the term "freedom" is not exactly the same.

Freedom, in general terms, is the state of being free of the various obligations that mars the growth of a person and being restricted by the societal bounds and expectations.

For Huck, freedom means to be away from the civilized society that restricts him from acting or behaving how he wants to. He had to be given formal education, dress in a specific manner and live a domestic life. These restrictions bound him from enjoying his life the way he wants, and getting on an adventure, away from the societal as well as religious restrictions.

Meanwhile, freedom, for Jim, is the state of being free from being the slave of Miss Watson. He wants to be the person who is not under the obligation to work for anyone, and be his own master and not the property of someone else.

In the end, both Huck and Jim get what they were looking for. Jim, through the death of Miss Watson, had all along been a free man according to her will. And Huck, who had been fearful of the reemergence of Pap, had been told that he had died. The story ends with Huck deciding to further go on an adventure to the West, saying he's "<em>got to light out for the Territory ahead of the rest, because Aunt Sally she’s going to adopt me and sivilize me, and I can’t stand it.  I been there before"</em>.
