Answer:
Door in face
Explanation:
In psychology, the door in face technique is a method of persuasion according to which the persuader tries to convince other person to comply to a large request (which the other person will likely say no to), then, the persuader makes a significantly smaller request and then the other person is likely to say yes.
It's been observed that using this technique the other person is most likely to accept the smaller request than if the request had been presented by its own at first (without the large request first).
In this example, Oscar wants to go to the movies by himself, however he asks his mom if he can go on a trip to the Rollercoaster Park and he already knows the answer will be no. We can see that<u> Oscar is making a </u><u>large</u><u> request and that his mom will say no to this one, but this wasn't even what Oscar really wants to do.</u> However, after this is asked, <u>he asks if he can at least go to the movies by himself (and which is what he actually wanted to ask)</u>. This second request is significantly smaller than the first one and her mom says yes. Therefore, this is an example of the door-in-face technique.
Answer:
b. transformation
Explanation:
Transforming principle was an early name for DNA. In 1928, scientists didn't know yet that DNA carried genetic information, but they knew that there was something that could cause bacteria to transform from one type to another.
Transformation occurs when one bacterium (you know, those microscopic, single-celled creatures) picks up free-floating DNA and incorporates it into its own genome. The idea of the transforming principle was discovered during an experiment by Frederick Griffith.
