Answer:

B. Close mindedness

Explanation:

Close mindedness simply means to have a mind that is not receptive to new ideas. To be closed-minded. Can mean disapproving, not willing to consider a different idea or opinions.

When one has already decided not to change his/her mind no matter what you tell him/her, he disapproves. This is being close-minded. Close-mindedness will make you not to be able to listen to and understand what you are being told. This is basically because you already have an opinion concerning what you are being told and you are not ready to change it.

Because Dan is an atheist, he doesn't want to hear what anyone that mentions God have to say, hence he is close minded and that is a listening barrier.

How did her environment affect her ability to:________. a. Use language to communicate b. Develop motor skills (walking, writing
professor190 [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Your question is incomplete. You did not specify who Genie is. You did not add more information to know what you are talking about: if this is a character of a book, a character of a movie, or if it is a person or not.

However, doing some deep research trying to help you, we found that Genie is the main character of a documentary called "Genie: Secret of the Wild Child."

The documentary refers to the real-life case of a girl who spent most of her childhood in confinement, inside a bedroom. So this environment affected her ability to use language to communicate because nobody taught her how to speak, she lived alone. No examples to follow. That is why never really developed motor skills such as walking, writing, or playing. She also never develop bonds with people. She was completely isolated by cruel people. Of course, when police knew about this case in Los Angeles, California, Genie's parents were accused of child abuse.
