Answer:His increasing hostility can best be explained in terms of the SCAPEGOAT THEORY.

Explanation:

Scapegoat theory refers to how an individual tends to shift the blame of their own wrongdoings to others who haven't contributed anything towards those wrong doing. This is more likely to evoke prejudice against those who are falsely accused for the person's wrong doing. When a person can not explain their own mistakes the only way to escape blaming themselves is to find someone to put a blame on so that they may keep feeling good about themselves.

Montel blames the minority group and staff on campus for having received a notice of probation he can't think that it was his own fault maybe for not studying .

Why would an earthquake most likely happen in California but not in Florida?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Because of the tectonic plates

Explanation:

California has a relatively high number of earthquakes due to its position on both the Pacific and North American Plates. These plates are in constant motion, and earthquakes occur when their sides slip against one another suddenly. Florida, on the other hand, is not on the boundary of a tectonic plate, so it does not experience earthquakes as often.
