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.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Empathy for them, because they intend to gain something

Explanation:

Research has found an answer to the question of whether people will help out-group and in-group members. People help their in-group members because of the feeling of empathy for them and out-group members because of what they stand to gain.

Individuals in a group feel more closely knitted together and hence feel more affected by the disadvantage of any of their member, thus they are more likely to help that member because of the feelings of empathy towards him, a hurt to one is a hurt to all. On the contrary, when people help individuals they are not in the same group with, they do so with the hope of getting something in return, maybe financial benefits or any other type of benefit.
