Answer: This response, which sends a disconfirming message to the other person, is known as <u>stonewalling.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Stonewalling is one's refusal to communicate with another person. This often happens as a result of conflict, when people avoid emotional discussions so as to prevent further arguing. Stonewalling might occur out of fear, or as an attempt to minimize tension in a difficult situation.

However, stonewalling can also be a manipulative technique that people employ to punish the other person. If a person deliberately prevents the other person from addressing the issue and communicating, it can negatively impact one's self-esteem and prevent the other person from normal functioning.

If you reach out and touch a dog's ear while he's sleeping it twitches. This is an example of
Roman55 [17]
A "stimulus" is basically an event that happens in the outside environment that triggers a response.  So, when you touched the dog's ear, that's a stimulus.  The twitch is a response!  So, A is correct.  But just to be sure, let's look at the rest.

Artificial selection (B) is basically breeding: when humans breed organisms in order to obtain desired traits, like breeding dog species--this is not what our example is talking about.

Natural selection (C) is a similar process.  When an organism mutates, but it actually helps it survive, it is more likely than the others to survive long enough to have babies.  These babies are likely to have the helpful mutation, and so are their babies, and theirs, until a good portion of them have the mutation.  This is NOT the example above!

And D, reproduction--well, let's just say it would involve a female dog and lots of babies, but that's not related to our example, so that isn't right either.  The answer is A: a response to a stimulus.

Answer: A

What general characteristics distinguish group insurance from individual insurance?
Anvisha [2.4K]
I believe the answer is: Group insurance is characterised by a group contract, experience rating of larger groups, and group underwriting.

The value of group insurance is usually significantly larger compared to individual insurance. But usually group insurance could only be created due to the help of government regulations (not individual will). Example of a group insurance is government's medicare.<span />
