Answer:variable - interval
Explanation: In the this scenario, The humanities instructor is using a variable-interval schedule of reinforcement. The instructor used the word 'surprise' meaning the time and date of the test isn't fixed and the quizzes will come up at unpredictable time intervals. This kind of reinforcement results in a steady response rate as it keeps students on their toes simply due to the fact that they have no idea of when the quizzes are coming up.
Answer:
During World War II, Victory Gardens were planted by families in the United States (the Home Front) to help prevent a food shortage. This meant food for everyone! Planting Victory Gardens helped make sure that there was enough food for our soldiers fighting around the world.
Explanation:
Answer:
The conclusion is false, because it is assuming that correlation = causation.
Explanation:
An important principle in statistical analysis is the principle that when correlation exist between two variables or more, it does not mean that one of the variables are causing the other to appear in a certain manner.
Remember that correlation means that you are investigating whether a relationships exists between two variables; in this example, as we can see, it is between the biodiversity in an ecosystem and the population of an insect.
The graph can be said to illustrate the result of the research; that as the biodiversity of the ecosystem goes down, the insect's population goes up. This is a form of negative correlation.
However - we do not know what is the direction of the relationship; the student concludes that as some insects die within the ecosystem, the researched insect's population goes up; assuming that the predator species died off and thus the researched insect's population increases.
Yet, it is also possible for the relationship to go towards the other direction; the researched insect population increases - perhaps by the introduction of a new food source that causes the species' population to increase - and thus, this damages the biodiversity of the ecosystem, making the population go down since it is possible that the researched insect is instead the species which is on top of the food chain at that ecosystem.
To investigate the direction of a relationship, further research need to be done and more sophisticated statistical methods need to be used.
