The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

a. primary

b. negative

c.positive

d. secondary

Answer:

A) primary

Explanation:

In psychology, a reinforcer refers to a stimulus which strengthens the behaviour and increases the chances or probability of the desired response.

The reinforcer can be of two types on the basis of pairing with a stimulus as a primary reinforcer and secondary reinforcer.

The primary reinforcer refers to the stimulus which is present in the humans from birth and is evolved as a part of the evolution for survival. The primary reinforcer does not depend on the stimulus and therefore is considered unconditioned reinforcer. Since it has evolved as part of the evolution for survival, therefore, strengthen the behaviour such as sex, hunger, water, touch.

Thus, A) primary  is the correct answer.

When a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, which will occur?
Sergeu [11.5K]
If a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, the cell would shrink.

Hypertonic solution means that the solution has a lower water potential than the other side (which is the cell's cytoplasm in this case), and by that, water molecules would have a tendency to flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential. This movement of water molecules is called osmosis. But note that a semi-permeable membrane (a membrane which can decide what substances can go in and out, the cell membrane is an example) has to be present in osmosis, or else the movement may be regarded as diffusion.

As the water molecules flowed away from the red blood cell cytoplasm, the cell loss so much water that the membrane has nothing much to hold and thus the cell shrinks.
