Answer: The author of this imagined quote most likely would agree with the following statement: Confederation is the worst form of government because it does not give enough authority to the national leaders.
Explanation: In a confederation the power lies with states and its leaders which can lead to chaos and weakness in the federal government’s control of individual states. This weakened federal system can result in low state-run military defense systems necessary to protect citizens as a whole.
Answer:
Neurotransmitters are chemical substances whose objective is to produce proper communication between neurons. For this to take place, there must be an adequate amount of dopamine and norepinephrine. In children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, the production of these two neurotransmitters is irregular; on the other hand, low levels of serotonin are related to the appearance and maintenance of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Explanation:
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is one of the disorders linked to insufficient production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine. This deficit of dopamine and norepinephrine causes problems in the regulatory circuits of various areas of the brain: the prefrontal cortex, the corpus callosum, and the basal ganglia. It is characterized by a difficulty in maintaining voluntary attention in the face of activities; on the other hand, low levels of serotonin are related to the appearance and maintenance of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter involved in various cognitive processes: modulation of mood, learning, memory, physiological responses, etc. Low levels of serotonin produce unusual responses, overexciting activation in the orbitofrontal cortex, affecting thought and behavior.
The correct answer is C. She can deceive her participants as long as she reveals the true nature of the study at its conclusion.
Explanation:
If the research involves human subjects, there are different ethical principles the researcher should follow to guarantee voluntary participation and the protection of participants and information. One of these principles is to be completely honest about the purpose of the research and the way participants will be part of it.
However, if revealing the purpose of the research can affect participation and create bias in the research, as it occurs in the case presented, the researcher can deceive participants during the research and reveal the purpose or nature of the research at the end. In this way, the researcher is still following ethical principles but avoids bias from participants. Thus, in the case presented Dr. Ethridge "can deceive her participants as long as she reveals the true nature of the study at its conclusion" (Option C).
