Answer:

While it was true that the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. In fact, the opposite occurred. Cotton growing became so profitable for the planters that it greatly increased their demand for both land and slave labor

Answer:

This invention made it possible to grow large amounts of cotton on big farms and make money. So even though the cotton gin meant less people or slaves had to operate it, it made growing cotton more profitable so that more and more people planted more and more cotton. This meant they needed more slaves.

Distinguish between functional and dysfunctional conflict and discuss why people avoid conflict

jeyben [28]

Functional conflict is a conflict that is productive to the long term goals of the people involved, and is respectful of all its participants. For example, two people having an honest debate about how best to spend a limited amount of finances, while being conscious of each others opinions, is a functional conflict.
Dysfunctional conflict is characterized by loud voices, name-calling, and not listening to what other people say. When an argument devolves into insults and epithets, this is dysfunctional.
People avoid conflict because they either fear hurt emotions, or fear that they do not possess the ability to argue persuasively or clearly enough to "win" the conflict.

a. behavioral

b. cognitive

c. psychodynamic

d. biological

In psychology, the behavioral perspective is a perspective which proposes that our behavior is learned as a result of our interaction with the environment. In other words, we learn from our environment how to act (based on reinforcement, punishment or by seeing other people's actions) and this learning is what determines our behavior.

In this example, Natassia believes that boys learn to be more aggressive because they are more frequently exposed to external pressures to fight. In other words, <u>Natassia believes that aggression is a behavior that boys learn from their environment through the pressure of other people</u>. Thus, this would exemplify the behavioral perspective.
