Answer: Intellectual disability is identified by problems in both intellectual and adaptive functioning. One can't always tell if a person has an intellectual disability by looking at them.

Explanation:

Individually administered and psychometrically reliable, comprehensive, culturally relevant, and psychometrically sound IQ tests are used to assess intellectual performance.
While a precise full-scale IQ test result is no longer required for diagnosis, standardized testing is employed in the process.
A full-scale IQ score of 70 to 75 implies considerable intellectual functioning limitations.
However, the IQ result must be read in light of the individual's challenges with general mental ability.
Furthermore, subtest scores might fluctuate significantly, thus the full-scale IQ score may not adequately indicate total intellectual functioning.
As a result, clinical judgment is required when evaluating IQ test results.

How does the play's structure create suspense? Check all that apply.

Answer:

The play's structure creates suspense:

A. by building tension through a series of crises where Nora must keep her secret;

B. by not resolving the conflict too soon, as Nora is able to keep her secret for a few days

E. by introducing characters and conflicts early when the audience learns that Nora has committed a crime.

Explanation:

"A Doll's House" is a play by Henrik Ibsen. Very early in the play, the audience learns that Nora has committed a crime. At a time when women were not allowed to do the same things as men, Nora, having to borrow some money from the bank, forged her father's signature to be able to do it. She reveals that information to Mrs. Linde, a friend from school.

Soon afterwards, the very man who gave her the loan comes to her house. Nora's husband Torvald also works at the bank, and is unaware of what Nora has done. The man who lent her the money, Krogstad, is being fired by Torvald. Krogstad demands that Nora help him by threatening to tell her husband about her crime. Nora is able to keep the secret for a couple of days, which adds to the tension and suspense in the play. The audience cannot predict what will take place, if Nora will or won't have her secret revealed.

The crisis gets worse when Krogstad is effectively fired. He now blackmails Nora, demanding to be rehired in a higher position than the one he used to have. Mrs. Linde promises to help Nora, but does not prevent Krogstad from revealing the truth by means of a letter. When Torvald finally learns about Nora's crime, he humiliates her, saying he won't allow her to raise their children. Krogstad, however, returns the contract with the fake signature. He no longer wishes to blackmail Nora. Still, after years of treated as inferior and that final humiliation by Torvald, Nora decides to leave him. For that reason, the play was considered scandalous when it was first performed.
