Answer:

A positive feedback loop.

Explanation:

During child birth, a positive feedback loop is generated.

During child birth, the cervix expands which results in releasing more oxytocin from the pituitary gland. With the release of more oxytocin results in more contraction which in turn results in further release of oxytocin and it continues as such.

Thus it seen that a positive feedback loop is generated in the brain which results in more release of oxytocin hormone and as a result more contraction.

Thus the answer is "A positive feedback loop".

Answer:

Murder in the second degree, because the killing occurred during the commission of the felony of assault with a deadly weapon.

When a murder is deemed as intentional and premeditated, then it means the accused actually wanted to take the life of the slain person and had planned the activity well ahead of time before carrying out the action. However, in this case, there isn't any evidence of premeditated shot. However, there is an act of felony in this case, whereby a mob assault a pawnshop owner for the payment of non-legal fees. This act of felony was then carried out with the use of a deadly weapon like a gun, when an assault is perpetrated with a weapon such as a gun, then the death of the victim is a distinct possibility.
