- the bell and pad treatment.
- systematic desensitization.
- rational-emotive therapy.

Answer:

systematic desensitization

Explanation:

Systematic desensitization is a treatment given by behavior therapists to those people who have anxiety disorders, phobia or fear about something. The phobia can occur due to the results of negative experiences in the past.

In systematic desensitization, the person's fear is reduced by engaging the person in relaxation exercise by exposing him/her to the stimulus that produces anxiety in them. So here as George has fear of going to the dentist due to earlier experience therefore to help George a behavioral therapist is likely to use systematic desensitization.

does the changing seasons remove co2 from the air ? i think it might due to increased plant grwoth but im unsure.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
I don't think changing seasons can REMOVE CO2 from the air, but I do think instead it could add it to the air. It's a long process that involves several ecosystems and stuff. But, as the climate is getting warmer, ice caps are melting and within these ice caps... there are trapped bubbles of CO2 that are released ( I am not sure if this adds a lot of CO2 to the atmosphere, but I am sure that it does contribute to CO2 concentration). 

In relation to your last statement... plant growth would actually reduce CO2 in the air because of the process of photosynthesis. Plants take in CO2 and give out O2 for us to breathe. In turn we conduct cellular respiration in which we take in the O2 and give out the CO2. So, plants are actually one good solution for decreasing CO2 levels.

How are the hydrogen bonds in water responsible for many of the molecules unique characteristics?
DiKsa [7]

Hydrogen bonds exhibit the stronger intermolecular force, and water is a polar molecule, so the hydrogen bonding create strong forces which take more energy to break (causing the surface tension of water), and due to the polarity water molecules “stick” to one another which causes the edges to rise up in a tube, forming a meniscus

explain how the rate at which fossil fuels are transferred into the atmosphere, as shown in the diagram, has altered the carbon
oee [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

Over the past 250 year or two and a half centuries fossil fuels have been burnt at a very fast rate to meet the various human needs. These fossil fuels contains huge amount of carbon dioxide. And when these fossil fuels are burnt in power factories, power plants, cars etc. carbon moves from the fossil to the atmosphere. And since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas it traps more heat and hence there is a global temperature rise.

It is estimated that every year almost five and a half billion tons of carbon is released by burning fossil fuels. And since this amount of carbon dioxide is very huge for plants to convert all of them into oxygen via photosynthesis it leads to disbalancing in the carbon cycle that is more carbon dioxide is produced than the amount can be utilized which finally leads to rise in Earth's temperature as all of the extra carbondioxide ends up in Trapping more sun light.
