The answer is response inhibition or also known as inhibitory control. This is a trademark of control. It is a mental process that allows an individual to constrain their impulses and natural, habitual, or dominant behavioral reactions to stimuli. In other terms, this concept refers to the suppression of no longer needed or inapt actions which supports flexible and goal-directed behavior in ever-changing environments.

Given the numerous infant classes and exercise DVDs available, Marley's parents are confused about how to approach their newborn
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. Although there is variability in the ages at which infants acquire various skills, the order in which skills are acquired is fairly consistent.

Explanation:

An infant's motor development occurs from the center of the body, from the top to the bottom. This means they control their heads, for example, before their feet.

It is fair to say that the ages in which an infant acquires the skills are consistent; he/she starts to develop gross and fine skills regularly.

How does a climate pattern of the western United states the reflect occurrence of the rain shadow effect
tatiyna

Explanation and answer:

A rain shadow is a patch of land that has been forced to become a desert because mountain ranges blocked all plant-growing, rainy weather. On one side of the mountain, wet weather systems drop rain and snow. On the other side of the mountain—the rain shadow side—all that precipitation is blocked.

In a rain shadow, it’s warm and dry. On the other side of the mountain, it’s wet and cool. Why is there a difference? When an air mass moves from a low elevation to a high elevation, it expands and cools. This cool air cannot hold moisture as well as warm air. Cool air forms clouds, which drop rain and snow, as it rises up a mountain. After the air mass crosses over the peak of the mountain and starts down the other side, the air warms up and the clouds dissipate. That means there is less rainfall.

You’ll often find rain shadows next to some of the world’s most famous mountain ranges. Death Valley, a desert in the U.S. states of California and Nevada, is so hot and dry because it is in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The Tibetan Plateau, a rain shadow in Tibet, China, and India has the enormous Himalaya mountain range to thank for its dry climate.
