Answer:

Absolute

Explanation:

In psychology of perception, the concept of absolute threshold refers to the lowest level of a stimulus that would make it detectable by the human senses. In other words, is the lowest level of something that a person would perceive.

In this example, Jack notices a very faint light that he can barely sees (but he can see it anyway) while his friend doesn't notice it. We can see that the light <u>was so weak it was hardly detectable by the eyes </u>(and Jack's friend didn't notice it). Since the light was so weak, we can say that it was at the lowest level that would make it detectable by humans and therefore is at the absolute threshold.

Answer:

This late Victorian alphabet, written and illustrated by Mary Frances Ames (writing as Mrs. Ernest Ames), aims to teach young Britons their ABCs — along with a veneration for military might, empire, and colonialism.

At the end of the 19th century, the British Empire was nearing the zenith of its empire and territorial holdings. With unchallenged naval superiority, Britain extended formal control over India and large swaths of Africa, as well as indirect economic control over many more nations.

That global hegemony is celebrated in this children’s book, with racist illustrations of tiger hunts in India, “naughty” Africans in chains, and fearsome displays of military power to excite the next generation of conquerors.

It also includes classic British icons such as roast beef and unicorns

Explanation:

What did our Victorian forebears think of their country, the empire, the army and navy, the life they led and, of course, their beloved Queen? Hundreds of mighty tomes have been written about the great colonial years when Britain ruled the waves but perhaps none summed it up so succinctly as this ABC for Baby Patriots first published in 1899. Was it written to instil patriotic and imperial values into children? After all, the great Empire builder Cecil Rhodes had said 'Remember that you are an Englishman and have consequently won first prize in the lottery of life'; or was it a disapproving tongue in cheek comment on jingoism? You must judge for yourself. Either way it provides an extraordinary view of the Victorian values and attitudes that made Britain great.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Cytokines

Stress causes the release of cytokines. Cytokines are proteins. To fight infections cytonkines initiate a response to the immune system this causes inflammation.

Stress can also lead to an increase in a person's allergies. Basically when we are affected by stress our body thinks it is being attacked hence inflammation and the affects of fighting infection appear.
