David, a clinical psychologist, conducts an experiment on two rats, Chub and Chip, by subjecting them to mild electric shocks. O
n the first day, David gives Chub 30 electric shocks an hour and gives Chip 10 shocks an hour. On the second day, he gives both Chub and Chip 15 shocks an hour. Which rat is likely to experience more stress on the second day and why
Chip will experience more stress on the second day
Explanation:
The rate named chip will experience more stress on the second day because it was exposed to only 10 shock on the first day while the rate named Chub was exposed to 30 shocks on the first day and hence Chub would feel less stress as it had been earlier exposed to a much higher stress condition.
