Answer:

the tone is the neutral stimulus

Explanation:

In classical conditioning, as first experimented by Pavlov in his experiment with dogs, the bell that was presented initially was the neutral stimulus which was not capable of eliciting salivation alone. He later paired the neutral stimulus (the bell), with the unconditioned stimulus (meat powder) which naturally elicited salivation. The neutral stimulus then became associated with the unconditioned stimulus to eventually trigger salivation when presented alone.

In the situation of the rat of which Mark wants to train it by applying classical conditioning technique, the tone is the neutral stimulus. Except it is paired with the unconditional stimulus which naturally would make the rat blink, it would only attract the attention of the rat without making it to blink.

1. List 2 interactions between the earth spheres and the water cycle.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The carbon cycle, as the nitrogen cycle, occurs in all the spheres: Biosphere, Atmosphere, Geosphere and Hydrosphere.

Explanation:

Most Earth events involve interaction between multiple spheres. For example, rain is the movement of water (the hydrosphere) from the atmosphere to the lithosphere where it collects in lakes, rivers, or streams. Water is an important resource for inhabitants of the biosphere.

The Atmosphere-contains all the air in Earth's system. The upper portion of the atmosphere protects the organisms of the biosphere from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. It also absorbs and emits heat. This sphere is also where weather occurs.

The nitrogen cycle occurs in all the spheres and ecosystems. It passes through rocks, water, atmosphere, plants, etc.

In atmosphere and biosphere: Nitrogen is about 78% of the gases in the atmosphere an it’s a essential component of the living organisms. It enters plants through the microorganisms that convert this nitrogen into ammonia. After this conversion, the plants absorb this substance. It can pass to animals when they eat these plants. Then, when they urinate, bacteria convert ammonia to nitrogen again and it returns to the atmosphere.

¿Qué tipo de célula apareció primero en la Tierra?:___, y se presentan en seres vivos como las:___ y se caracterizan porque:___.
Levart [38]

Answer:

Célula procariota y procariotas.

Explicación:

La célula procariota es un tipo de célula que apareció por primera vez en la Tierra hace unos mil millones de años. Estos tipos de células están presentes en los procariotas, lo que significa que estos organismos no tienen un núcleo verdadero o una membrana nuclear alrededor del núcleo y otros orgánulos de la célula. El ADN del organismo procariótico se encuentra en una parte central de la célula que se conoce como nucleoide. La pared celular de un procariota actúa como una capa adicional de protección, ayuda a mantener la forma y estructura celular y previene la deshidratación.
