Answer:
Which of the following situations would be most likely to engage the anterior cingulate cortex?
A waiter walks over to your table at a restaurant and holds an open menu in front of you.
You walk into the elevator of your apartment building and press the button for your floor.
You enter your classroom and find someone sitting in your usual seat.
A good friend asks you to remind him of your telephone number.
Explanation:
In order to meet the demand of the surrounding environment by adjusting the motor outputs from the brain to the environments ,a part of the emotion control part of the brain( limbic system) called the anterior cingulate cortex is responsible for this.
Anatomically, the limbic system is made up of the primarily the amygdala, hippocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, basal ganglia and cingulate gyrus.
Based on the this its(anterior cingulate cortex) functions are formation of emotion in the limbic system, and possessing of memory and learning.
it is also a major parts of of pain networks for pain modulation and perception.
Therefore whenever there is change in the environment from the prestored condition in the brain,(e.g the usual seat in the class room occupied above) the anterior cingulate cortex adjust the motor input from the brain to adapt to the new environment to take an action,whih in this case leads to the reclaiming of the seat or any other necessary proactive action.
The correct answer is true.
Behavior Modification refers to the action wherein an individual tries to change everyday behaviors done by one's self. In weight loss, Behavior Modification refer to breaking down food intake into smaller meals, only when hungry and one must stop, when he or she is already satisfied, it affects a person's satisfaction and at the same time he or she is not deprived from food.

Answer:
Xerophyte survival characteristics:
Thick cuticle.
Stomatal closure.
Reduction in # of stomata.
Stomata hidden in crypts or depressions in leaf surface (less exposure to wind and sun).
Reduction in size of transpiration surface (lower leaf only).
Increased water storage.
Explanation:
Xerophyte adaptations increase water intake, limit water loss, and store water efficiently. Water intake adaptations include deep or widespread roots, and high salt content to increase osmosis. Xerophytes have thick cuticles, lost or finely divided leaves, reduced stomata, and CAM photosynthesis
