Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Negative Reinforcement was the term used by B. F. Skinner in his theory named Operant Conditioning. Operant Conditioning is a method of learning that includes rewards or punishment.

In Operant Conditioning, negative reinforcement is defined as a behavior trying to escape from negative outcomes or aversive stimuli. Aversive stimuli is the term used for the stimulus that a person usually wants to avoid or escape. <u>In simple terms, a negative reinforcement can be defined as a behavior that is unpleasant is tend to be removed to create a favorable outcome</u>.

<u>In the given case, negative reinforcement is taking place, because Mark is trying to remove the behavior of getting up late to avoid being yelled by his mother as he dislikes it. So, Mark is trying to remove an unpleasant behavior to create a favorable outcome, that is that his mother may stop yelling at him</u>.

Thus, the correct option is C.

The correct answer is C. Direct sunlight and rainy days.

Explanation

The equator is a latitudinal area of the Earth located between 0 ° and 23 ° latitude (towards the north and south). This area has particular climatic characteristics defined by the direct incidence of the sun's rays. This characteristic means that this place lacks seasons (spring, summer, autumn, and winter) and, on the contrary, has a climatic pattern of drought and seasonal seasons. Rainfall is determined by the movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone in which the north and south winds meet, forming a latitudinal strip of clouds that cause abundant rainfall during the rainy season. So the correct answer is C. Direct sunlight and rainy days.
