The connection between the Ventral striatum  and the prefrontal cortex changes during puberty, and that increases risk-taking behavior.

Answer: D

Explanation

The puberty stage is normally referred to as a teenage stage.

Teenagers are known to excessively take risks and get involved in dangerous activities.

They also act on the impulse and don’t even hesitate to think about the consequences of their behavior.

This is because of their brain development.

The prefrontal cortex is responsible for planning, logical thinking and rationalization.

The ventral striatum develops faster and is associated with the ability to get attracted to things that promise rewards or that are catchy.

For example, teenagers when they want something they don’t care whether it is right or wrong they want it now.

That is a temporary gratification type of reward.

How did the alliance system drag countries into the war
Luden [163]
The alliance system drag other countries into the war, because of the treaties and peace acts they had made with each other. So if one country was attacked, the countries it had an alliance with. Would have to help fight back with them, and during that time almost every country had an alliance with another. So all it took was for another country with lots of alliances to attack another with just as many. To bring about a huge war, hope this helped.
