Answer:

A). Todd's attitude about seat belts will not change; Ed's will become stronger that seat belts are unnecessary.

Explanation:

In the situation provided, the most likely outcome of giving a huge reward to Todd and small to Ed would be that the former's viewpoint regarding seatbelts would not change while Ed's opinion would turn stronger that there is no requirement of laws for requiring the seatbelts.

<u>The change in Ed's perspective is because of the smaller reward he's received</u>. Behavioral psychologists have proved that rewards act as motivators to stimulate/encourage the recurrence of a specific positive behavior. While the negative behavior is reinforced if a behavior is not rewarded aptly. Similarly, it happens with Ed's changed attitude.

How did living patterns change in cities during the industrial revolution?
Kisachek [45]
<span>With the emergence of the industrial Revolution, many changes were made in the living patterns of people in the cities.  More people started to migrate to the cities for better opportunities.  As a result livelihood started to shift from farms to factories.  Unfortunately with mass migration came overpopulation.  Many of those who traveled to the cities were now living in cramped living quarters and tried to make the most of it.  One of the negative changes was the increase in pollution especially in air and water. Rivers started to filled with trash and refuse from factories and from residents who live in the cities.  Polluted water and poor living conditions also led to emergence of diseases like tuberculosis.  This prompted the government to improve the sewage and treating the water supply as well banning tenements.</span>

Which best prevented the government from maintaining control at the end of the Tang Dynasty?
MariettaO [177]
The Tang Dynasty was one of the imperial dynasties in China's history. It was an era of peace and stability for the Chinese. Cultural activities flourished during this time. This period is considered the greatest era for Chinese poetry. Unfortunately, the government began to decline by the end of the ninth century. The decline was in part, to several natural disasters that took place as well as the agrarian rebellion against the government. This rebellion was eventually suppressed by the Tang government, but it never recovered enough to withstand the takeover from future military rulers

Select the correct response from the drop-down menu. Russia lost power in the early 1900s power due to
bazaltina [42]

The late 1800’s-early 1900’s were a trying time for the nation of Russia due to many events. These harsh times began in the 1890’s with the bad living and working conditions in the country that led to many strikes and revolts. A major revolt occurred in 1905 after the creation of radical factions/political parties. The Tsar (ruler) was not able to keep control or repair the sluggish economy. In both, 1905 and 1914 Russia found itself at war, which both led to embarrassing defeats, revolution, and the overthrow of the Tsar.
