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>

Veronika [31]

Patrick Henry argues that war with Britain is inevitable.


In his speech he says, "The war is inevitable -- and Let it come!" Throughout his famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech, Patrick Henry details all of the reasons the colonies should have a revolution. He argues that Britain is treating them like slaves and ignoring all of their requests and petitions. He also states that the colonies will never be stronger. They are as strong as they are going to get and if they wait too long, Britain will have amassed an army that they will not be able to defeat.
