PART B: Which detail from the text best supports the answer to Part A?

PARTS OF SPEECH

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. 'on' = preposition

2. 'and' = conjunction

3. yummy' =adjecttive

4. 'their' = pronoun

5. 'wishbone' = noun

6. 'larger' = adjective

7. 'generously' = adverb

8. 'donate' = verb

Explanation:

1. Remember, a preposition is a word or group of words that are often used before a noun or pronoun in other to indicate the direction of an object or the location. Therefore, the word, "on" is a good example of a preposition.

2. A conjunction is a word that helps to connect sentences or clauses together. The word 'and' is an example of conjunction as it helps to connect the first sentence, "Each year Americans....sweet potatoes, cornbread, mashed potatoes," to the second "cranberry sauce are a large part of Thanksgiving celebrations."

3. An adjectives are words that describe or modify other words. Hence, the word 'yummy' describes the delicious feeling when "Some families include breaking the turkey's wishbone as part of their celebration."

4. The word, "their" is a pronoun because it acts to replace a noun in other to avoid repetitions of a noun.

5. A noun in simple terms, is a word that names an object, person or thing. Here, the word, 'wishbone' is the name of an object "found attached to the breast meat in the turkey's chest."

6. Here, the word 'larger' describes/modifies the word "part of the bone".

7. An adverb is any word that modifies a verb, adverb, sentence, or other words. The word 'generously' does exactly that by modifying the adverb, 'to'.

8. Remember, a verb is a word that describes/shows an action. Here the 'donate' indicates an action that is done.

If psychology were to be an exact, or to use Mill's phrase, "a perfect" science, then specific human acts could be accurately pr

AleksAgata [21]

Would a prediction be accurate if the person about to act becomes aware of the prediction prior to the act itself?

This is a classic problem of the deterministic approach to action. If psychology was perfect, it is likely that this would enable psychologists to predict how a person is going to act in any situation. It would also make psychologists able to predict when this act would take place. However, for such a prediction to be useful, the psychologist would have to keep this information from the subject. Otherwise, the knowledge of the prediction could potentially make the person act in a different way, rendering the prediction obsolete.

Does the fact that a prediction can be known in advance disprove the possibility of predicting accurately or is that fact just one more antecedent condition?

The fact that a prediction can be known in advance does disprove the possibility of predicting accurately. The moment a prediction is made, the prediction alters the state of the components that were necessary to know in order to make a prediction. Therefore, the prediction becomes obsolete as the action might or might not happen in the way that was previously predicted.
