Answer:

The answer is reaction formation.

Explanation:

Reaction formation is a defense mechanism is which a person exhibits a behaviour that is <u>radically opposite</u> from what he really feels. In the example, Felix shows excessive dislike to hide his true feelings about Rita.

This mechanism is believed to occur because either people are afraid of being discovered, thus negatively affecting their lives; or because they perceive their own feelings as unacceptable and are trying to convince themselves to change.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

C) 3 sec

Explanation:

We must have to maintain the spacing of 3 Seconds. To be on the safer side, we should not enter into the gap which is way too close.

1) Americans chose allegiances based on geography not ideology.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

1. Agree

2. Desagree

Explanation:

1. Americans chose loyalties based on geography, before starting civil war. Obviously, these alliances between states had an idology, which was intensified based on the region and the geographic position that they presented, therefore, alliances were created between southern states and northern states, which shared the same thoughts in relation to the slave system and the division of the national territory.

2. The Civil War did not end regional conflicts in America, on the contrary, the war created a strong disagreement and rejection of southern states in relation to northern states and vice versa. These conflicts have damaged social relations and reconstruction projects, in addition to delaying national unity.
