After Captain Cleveland of Salem claimed to have sailed around the world, single-handedly in 1800, there were many other attempt

s made at solitary ocean crossings. Not all of these attempts were successful. Sailing alone posed many dangers, including the possibility of the boat capsizing, running into harsh weather conditions, and the ever-present danger of the lone sailor falling overboard. In all of these situations, there would be no one to help. Despite the risks, people continued to attempt lone sailing missions.
Bernard Colby was one of those brave sailors. In 1882, he set out from San Francisco aboard a 19-foot schooner that he built himself. Colby worked hard, and with limited resources, to build his own ship. He was at sea for more than one hundred days. Unfortunately, a swordfish pierced the hull of his ship, causing him to fail. He was rescued from the water by a passing fishing boat. He never made another attempt at a lone ocean crossing.

Select the sentence from the article that best shows its text structure.

Someone plz help me categorize these behaviors (biological,stimulus,or learned) thank you!
Anettt [7]

As you read through the list, ask yourself these questions:

Were you born this behavior (biological)

Is this behavior is response to something else (stimulus)

Is this a behavior you learned how to do (learned).

For example, sat quietly in class while the teacher was talking - learned.  You learned to be quiet because it was a rule that if broken, you would suffer the consequences.  Another example, a car is approaching quickly as you are crossing the street.  You run to get out of the way.  This is stimulus because you are reacting (responsive) to the car approaching.  Lastly, you cry when you see I person you love physically hurt.  This is biological.
