Answer:

Cognitive Equilibrium.

Explanation:

Deshawn is experiencing cognitive equilibrium that exemplifies a balance between an individual's mental framework and the environment. The equilibrium(balance) is achieved when expectations or the schemata based on earlier knowledge equips with the new knowledge. It is one of the four crucial factors in cognitive development.

Jean Piaget outlined this equilibration as the process that refines the mental arrangements or constructions and reforms it positively, which defines the basis of cognitive development as it transforms an individual to move from the developmental stage to another. Thus, <em>Deshawn experiences cognitive equilibrium as he had a preconceived confused mental image of leopard and cheetah which has been clarified and reformed by his father with new knowledge.</em>

Conditional statement, hypothesis, and conclusion

Another name for an if-then statement is a conditional statement. Every conditional has two parts. The part following if is the hypothesis and the part following then is the conclusion.

A conditional statement is a statement that is usually in the “if-then” form. It is used to express unreal or possible situations. Conditional statements are made up of two parts; the part that follows if (hypothesis or conditional part), and the part that follows then (the main part or conclusion). When writing a conditional statement, the order of arrangement of the two parts is not important but a comma should be used to separate them.
