Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

This best illustrates the importance of "<u>biological predispositions</u>" in associative learning.

Explanation:

Biological predisposition in humans means that there are internal characteristics humans possess that increase their chances of having certain conditions.

The taste aversion (or dislike) someone develops after eating tainted food and falling ill is as a result of <em>associating the stimuli (the taste of the bad food) with the response (falling ill)</em>.

By associating the stimuli with the response, the body learns to stay away from such food in future, to avoid falling ill again.

This indicates that biological predispositions are more important in associative learning than external stimuli (such as; music or the sight of the restaurant).

This ruling sanctioned the Jim Crows Laws that prevented the African Americans from sharing public facilities. It was unconstitutional because it allowed the segregation.
