Learning theorists call the presentation of a stimulus that increases or maintains a response as positive reinforcement. It contains the addition of reinforcing stimulus after a behavior that makes it more likely that the behavior will occur again in the future. When a satisfactory outcome, event or reward occurs after an action, that particular answer or behavior will be strengthened such as a child receiving a gold star for doing a core.

Stels [109]

<u>Answer</u>:

Cameron has been very stressed during harvest season while working on farm equipment in the evenings and harvesting the crops during the day. He comes down with the flu the day after his last field is harvested. The reason for his illness is likely that Cameron’s stress hormones suppressed the activity of Lymphocytes.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Immune system is the collection of billion number of cells that travel through our bloodstream. They defend our body against bacteria and viruses. White blood cells are the main immune cells in our body.  

When a person gets stressed, the immune system's ability to fight gets reduced. The stress hormone “corticosteroid” suppresses the efficiency of the 'immune system' by reducing the number of "Lymphocytes". Lymphocytes are of two types:

a.  "B cells" which produce antibodies and are released in the "fluid" surrounding the body cells.  

b. "T cells" which gets locked to the 'infected' cell and destroy it.

What was one special issue on President Clinton's presidential agenda
navik [9.2K]
By the end of his first year, Clinton had battled Congress to secure adoption of an economic package that combined tax increases (which fell mainly on the upper class) and spending cuts (which hurt mainly impoverished Americans). His 1993 economic package passed without a single Republican vote in either chamber of Congress, and despite that party's dire predictions that it would result in economic chaos. This economic policy lowered the deficit from $290 billion in 1992 to $203 billion by 1994.By 1999, surging tax revenues from a booming economy had generated a surplus of $124 billion—a development few would have thought possible in 1992. Surpluses amounting to $1.5 trillion were then projected for the first decade of the 21st century.
