Answer:

The correct answer is C. The behavior will immediately increase in frequency, but then decrease overtime.

Explanation:

Classical conditioning centers on the idea that an individual can develop a certain behavior through reinforcements or punishments.

In this example, the teacher's attention is the reinforcer to the student's behavior or making sounds to get it. As long as this continues, the student's behavior will stay the same.

Once the teacher decides to ignore the student, his/her behavior will increase immediately, hoping that he/she will <em>once again obtain the reinforcement. </em>However, overtime it will most likely decrease since the teacher will no longer be reinforcing this behavior and thus it will probably be extinguished.

2- How were Native Americans harmed by the “encounter”?
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Native American populations declined rapidly due to a lack of immunity to disease

Explanation:

At that time, many Europeans who came to American continent carried out viruses that could cause diseases such as  smallpox, influenza, and measles within their body.

When they "Encountered" The native Americans, these viruses passed on to the Natives and infected them.

Because the natives have lack of immunity to disease (they never experienced diseases like that in their life) , the effect to their body is much greater compared to the Europeans. This led to large amount of death among Native Americans.
