Answer: learned helplessness

Explanation: The response of the second group is due to learned helplessness which is a behavior characterized by unwillingness to learn or adapt usually due to previous failure or inability to overcome previous challenges and thus seems out of control. Animals or individuals with such behavior will not try to adapt or strive to overcome such stimulus when faced with such in the future. They become conditioned and believe that such situation has no remedy and it is beyond their control.

AveGali [126]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to attach the options for this question. However, we can comment on the following.

It is very controversial and has led to numerous lawsuits. An individual with a higher average is passed over for an individual who has a lower average but who is a minority person, let’s say for example, into admission into a certain college or to be hired into a certain job. This is because of affirmative action.

This term means that there are a series of policies aimed to increase the presence of minority groups in some institutions or schools. These minority groups are based on their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, or gender.

These practices or policies stem from the idea that these minority groups have a minimum representation in those institutions, companies, or schools. That is affirmative action tries to diminish the inequalities and support diversity.
