Answer:

The correct answer is B. Proactive Interference

Explanation:

In terms of psychology, interference is defined as an explanation of forgetting in long term memory. In Proactive interference old information encoded is actively preventing the recall of new information, in Charity's case this is exactly what is happening when she walks to the wrong side of the room because of the previous information interfering with the new reality of the room.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:d. all of the above.

inysia [295]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Nations tend to market goods and services to meet consumer needs. However, most nations impose fees and limits on the entry of products from other countries into the national territory, to reduce competition and stimulate the national industry. When a free trade agreement is signed, as occurred in the European Union, these restrictions cease to exist. In this way, products move freely between countries, stimulating competition and lowering prices. Thus, the most efficient firms have remained in the market and consumers will be better off as they can buy the products at the lowest possible price.

natta225 [31]
Some Hispanics in the United States do not feel that they are unfairly construed as immigrants, when in fact many of them have lived in what is now the United States for longer than the U.S. has existed.Many Hispanics in New Mexico, for instance can trace their ancestry to Spanish settlements established in the late 1500s, long before the United States existed and a hundred years before the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth. Some Hispanics in Texas argue that they were living peacefully in that land as Mexican citizens until Anglo-Americans forcefully seized Texas from Mexico in the Texas War of Independence
