The question being tested is whether or not the human body will produce more red blood cells at higher altitudes.
The hypothesis an athlete would create from this question is that the body will produce more red blood cells at a higher altitude to ensure the pumping of oxygen throughout the body.
I belive the answer to the first one is no I would have to assume a habitual zone is one area on a planet. for example, an air conditioned building vs. the Savvanah dessert. However I am not sure maybe other answers will help more on this one. Sorry.... Earth-like planet would of course need water, plant life, animals, oxygen, fossil fuels etc. A challenge we would face on a travel to another liveable planet: do we have engough transportation? engough fuel to make it? How long can we live on this planet? Who or what else is present here? etc. Yes I do think they should discover a planet with earth like qualities befor investing in tools to get us to them. So money is not wasted. (make sure to put this into your own words )
Well, I don't think you can present any evidence to show she is wrong. Behaviorists believe that children and any human being acquire language through conditioning - you present them with a condition under which they learn a certain language. Since this woman is a behaviorist, I don't see why she is wrong in believing what she does.
