statuscvo [17]3 years ago
8 0

Prevailing winds are winds that blow predominantly from a single general direction over a particular point on the Earth's surface. The dominant winds are the trends in direction of wind with the highest speed over a particular point on the Earth's surface. A region's prevailing and dominant winds are often affected by global patterns of movement in the Earth's atmosphere. In general, easterly flow occurs at low and medium latitudes globally.

Give an example where you put observational learning into effect. What did you observe and what did you end up doing (or not doi
worty [1.4K]

When I was younger I went to my older brother's basketball games every Saturday to watch him and his friends play. After a while my brother finally convinced my mom to get us a hoop for our own backyard. When we got it I played with my already brother but I already know how to shoot, I must have picked up from watching him play.

This is observation learning because I didn't know how to shoot a hoop and I was never taught, I saw what my brother did and mimicked it, an example of observation learning.

What I ended up doing was shooting basketballs in the hoop without being taught.

Hope this helps!

Why is it important to center the object you want to look at in your field of view before changing to a higher magnification obj
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

B. So you can always see the entire object at the higher magnification

Explanation:

A microscope is used to view objects smaller than the naked or unaided eyes can see. The objective lens, in conjunction with the occular or eye lens, is used to achieve this purpose. The objective lens are of different magnifications as follows: 10X, 40X, 100X etc.

However, as the magnification increases i.e. higher objective, the object in the field of view becomes smaller and less focused. Hence, the object in the field of view must first be centered at a lower magnification/objective lens before changing to a higher one in order for the entire object to be seen at a higher magnification.
