The Farmers’ Plight

History
1 answer:
Blizzard [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1. What or who do the people underneath the tracks represent?

The farmers' plight ( the farmers problem) shows that the farmer is at the mercy of the railroad and that the farmer is trying to warn the businessman (investors) but as you see with the one who is reading the paper no one is paying the farmer any attention. The people being held down by the tracks don't seem to care.

2. Why do you think the cartoonist portrayed the tracks in this way?

Because the tracks are cutting through the farmland causing "The Farmers Plight" (plight=problem). The railroads caused the prices of their crops to drop, the farmers had to mortgage out their farms to buy more land to produce more crops (still bringing in less money), banks were foreclosing, the land took a huge hit and became less sustainable for crops and while all of the hardship fell on the "normal" folk/farm folk the railroads were monopolizing off of the hardship.

What social scientist studied human behavior and stated that humans and animals can have trained and learned responses.
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

C- Ivan Pavlov

Explanation:

The experiment of Ivan Pavlov and his dogs is one of the most known and remarkable in the history of psychology. Thanks to this small accidental discovery, a psychological theory of learning began to be constructed. Thus, Pavlov's studies have helped us to understand associative learning through classical conditioning.

Pavlov said that humans and animals can have trained and learned responses. Through his experiments, classical conditioning was defined as the association of an initially neutral stimulus with a significant stimulus. Therefore, when the neutral stimulus is present, in the absence of the other stimulus, a similar response will arise that would occur if the stimulus were significant. This ability to associate stimuli, however disparate, helps us in many everyday situations.
