<span>The question is showing us the following scenario: Nelson's hobby is tinkering with small appliances. Tinkering with implies that Nelson is unskilled at his hobby. You want to change the flavor of this sentence to show that Nelson is, in fact, quite skilled at his hobby. What we need to do, is to find a similar, but a positive word to substitute for "tinkering" - and the word will be "repairing" because it shows us that he is actually successful at what he's doing - his actions improve the small appliances.</span><span />

n200080 [17]

Answer:

D). Social referencing.

Explanation:

Social referencing is exemplified as the process through which the infants become able to understand or perceive the world that surrounds them. In this process, the infants show intuitive displays(by noticing the facial expressions of people around him/her and taking decisions accordingly) like an adult in order to regulate or control their behavior or conduct towards the environmental situation, object, or people.

In the given situation, the food preferences of Rodney and Sarah reflects that how they both have perceived the world surrounding them and how their preferences or behaviors have been emulated by it. They have observed the world around them and have been affected by it as they took cues(their taste preferences or choice decisions reflect references from society) from the adult people around them in the environment. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Which sentence best describes electrical conductors?
timama [110]

In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of an electrical current in one or more directions. Materials made of metal are common electrical conductors. Electrical current is generated by the flow of negatively charged electrons, positively charged holes, and positive or negative ions in some cases.

In order for current to flow, it is not necessary for one charged particle to travel from the machine producing the current to that consuming it. Instead, the charged particle simply needs to nudge its neighbor a finite amount who will nudge its neighbor and on and on until a particle is nudged into the consumer, thus powering the machine. Essentially what is occurring here is a long chain of momentum transfer between mobile charge carriers; the Drude model of conduction describes this process more rigorously. This momentum transfer model makes metal an ideal choice for a conductor as metals, characteristically, possess a delocalized sea of electrons which gifts the electrons enough mobility to collide and thus effect a momentum transfer.

As discussed above, electrons are the primary mover in metals; however, other devices such the cationic electrolyte(s) of a battery, or the mobile protons of the proton conductor of a fuel cell rely on positive charge carriers. Insulators are non-conducting materials with few mobile charges that support only insignificant electric currents.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

D. The workman directed the drivers and us around the road construction.

Explanation:

The list of objective case pronouns includes:

<em>me, him her, it, you, us, them. </em>

In a sentence, they should be used as objects.

Option A uses <em>him</em> as a subject, which is incorrect.

Option B uses <em>her</em> as a subject, which is incorrect.

Option C uses <em>him</em> as a predicate nominative, i.e. a subject complement, which is also incorrect.  

Only option D correctly uses an objective case pronoun, us, as an object.
