2. There is a mouse inside a cage. Within the cage, there is a light bulb and a lever. You want to teach the mouse to step on th

e lever each time you turn on the light. When the mouse steps on the lever, you give him a treat (but only when the light turns on). After several attempts, the mouse learns that, "When the light turns on, I must step on the lever in order to receive a treat." Was this associative or instrumental learning? Explain. (2 points).

Answer:

Instrumental learning

Explanation:

Associative learning is a form of learning which is performed when two or more events or stimuli controls the learning behaviour. The instrumental learning is a  type of learning in which the learning process is associated with the consequence or result of the action.

In the given question, the mouse learns how to step on the lever as a result of the received food in the form of reward or he learned because he received the treatment, therefore, this act of learning will be considered the instrumental learning.

Thus, Instrumental learning is correct.

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Explanation:

True:

The universe's average temperature and rate of expansion support the idea that it began as one super-dense and hot mass 13.8 billion years ago.

This is true because it is exactly how we know how old the universe is, it is also how we know it began "at a point" or at least that it used to be very dense.

False:

Human life is more valuable than other forms of life on Earth because humans are more intelligent than other organisms.

What this is implying is that somehow we are better than other organisms. There is no evidence that supports this claim.

True:

Ocean tides are caused by the uneven gravitational pulls of the Moon and Sun on different parts of Earth.

This is why there are tides and it has direct evidence.

False:

The opinions of randomly selected participants in a survey prove the idea that global temperatures are not increasing on Earth.

What people think (most of the time) is wrong. People can "know" things but that doesn't mean they are true. this is what neil degras tyson calls a "self truthe". You can't base your claim off of what people claim rather you should do a real scientific experiment.

<u>I hope it helped!!!</u>
