Answer:

Explanation:

Georgia is crossed by five distinct physiographic provinces, based on similarities in land formations, elevation, rocks and minerals, soil, and other characteristics. They are the 1) Coastal Plain, 2) Piedmont, 3) Blue Ridge, 4) Ridge and Valley, and 5) Plateau. You can see this regions marked in the accompanying maps; below is a description of each region.

Coastal Plain

For more on the Lower Coastal Plain, see the New Georgia Encyclopedia.

Georgia’s largest geographical region is the Coastal Plain; it covers approximately 60 percent of the state, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Fall Line. In prehistoric times, this area of what is now Georgia was covered by ocean. Ocean waves slowly wore down hills and other land formations as they advanced inland. As time passed, countless numbers of seashells and other remains of ocean life sank to the ocean floor. Tightly packed, they eventually became beds of soft rock called limestone. Over time, rivers and streams deposited large amounts of soil, clay, and rock that had eroded from the hills and mountains to the north into the ocean. This eventually caused thousands of feet of sediment - or settled deposits - to cover the ocean floor.

According to which of the following theories is language acquired by imitation and reinforcement of specific sounds
noname [10]

Learning theories is language acquired by imitation and reinforcement of specific sounds.

Learning theory explains how learners absorb, process, and retain knowledge during learning. Cognitive, emotional, environmental influences and past experiences all play a role in acquiring or altering understandings or worldviews and maintaining knowledge and skills.

Behaviorists see learning as an aspect of conditioning and advocate reward and goal systems in education. Educators who turn to cognitive theory believe that defining learning as behavioral change is too narrow and study the complexity of learners, especially human memory, rather than the environment.
