Unprecedented industrial growth in the country of Remo has created serious environmental problems because factories there lack adequate pollution control systems. Remo is developing a clean growth plan that includes environmental regulations that will require the installation of such systems. Since no companies in Remo currently produce pollution-control systems, the plan, if implemented, will create significant opportunities for foreign exporters to market pollution-control systems
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
A. The clean growth plan will provide tax incentives for local business to develop and manufacture pollution-control systems
B. Foreign exporters would provide factory-trained technicians to maintain the pollution-control systems sold in Remo.
C. Industrial lobbyists sponsored by local business in Remo are trying to prevent the implementation of the government regulations
D. The regulations that Remo plans to implement are much less strict than those in neighboring nations.
E. Pollution in Remo has caused serious health problems for workers, contributing to a significant increase in the number of workdays lost to illness
Answer:
A. The clean growth plan will provide tax incentives for local business to develop and manufacture pollution-control systems
Explanation:
The excerpt talks about a clean growth plan initiated by the Country of Remo for the purpose of developing pollution control systems. It also states that there are no companies in Remo that can produce pollution-control systems. Therefore, the plan would mostly benefit foreign exporters.
Option A would weaken the argument because it says that the clean growth plan would provide tax incentives or benefits for local businesses to develop and manufacture pollution-control systems. If this happens, there would be no room for foreign exporters as the passage says there would.

Pavlov, the researcher who studied classical conditioning, rang a bell every time he fed his dogs. At first the dogs drool in response to the food, but eventually began to drool in response to the bell alone (with or without the food). In this example, the food is the _____________________ stimulus, and the bell is the ____________________ stimulus.
Answer:
a non-neutral or unconditioned stimulus
neutral stimulus
Explanation:
Ivan Pavlov developed a theory known as Classical conditioning. it is when two stimuli are linked together to produce a new learned response.
Ivan conducted a research with dogs. he demonstrated how the presence of food (stimulus) would lead to the dog salivating. salivation is known as an unconditioned response. When he gave the dogs food, he rang a bell. after a period, ringing the bell led the dogs to salivate. the bell is a neutral stimulus.

Bowlby argued that infants perform behaviors which increase the probability that adults will care for them. This idea was based on the principle that ducklings will also increase the probability that they will survive if they perform certain behaviors. What was the specific behavior that we discussed in class that ducklings perform which may increase their probability of survival
Answer: Imprinting
Explanation: The concept of imprinting refers to a biological or psychological concept whereby infant or newly born animals develop a natural sense of survival attained through an automated phase of character development by bonding with the species required to ensure their survival after birth. This phase of development seems really automated as newly born infants develop a very strong sense of attachment to their mothers who in the real sense are the ones required to provide them with the food, sheltwr and other requirements needed for survival. This is also the case with baby ducklings who tend to form a strong natural sense of attachment to their mothers upon delivery following her in other to provide cover, shelter and learn a out their identity.
Abby's therapist and Abby have developed a hierarchy of social situations that range from not very threatening to very threatening. The therapist's strategy is to start with the least threatening and work up to assist Abby in not being so sensitive to rejection, to improve Abby's sense of unworthiness, and to assist her in having more relationships with others. This is a description of using _____ _____ to treat Abby's diagnosis of avoidant personality disorder.
Answer:
Graduated exposure.
Explanation:
This treatment is also called systematic desensitization. It is a treatment therapy form that is used to categorically tackle avoidance of feared situations, objects and also activities due to anxiety. Treatment pattern in this therapy is seen to practically combine a persons cognitive and behaviours which is mostly used in retraining the brain. Here, it is seen that the brain is been taught that it doesn’t need to create pain in reaction to specific situations and movements.
In scenarios where the pain are seen to be very hard or have a high effect on the person/patient, this graded exposure will be done in vivo, meaning that patients are facing their feared activities directly.

Answer:
c. both sequential and frustration mechanisms can promote responding during extinction.
Explanation:
Both sequential and frustration theories explain why there is increased resistance to extinction even when there should be extinction. The sequential theory explains that the subject's response increases when zero reward is followed by a reward intermittently so that the subject's memory of nonreward and reward trials boost response. In the same vein the frustration theory explains that a subject's response is increased with the partial reinforcement extinction effect whereby the subject is unable to notice when extinction begins(the discrimination hypothesis) and therefore keeps anticipating reward

A professor decides to perform an experiment with two of his classes. He believes that students in a hot classroom do not learn well. In one class, he leaves the room temperature at 70 degrees (normal room temperature). In another class, he turns the temperature up to 85 degrees. At the end of the semester he gives the same final exam to students from each classroom to see if one group has learned significantly more than the other. (Overall, a highly unethical study.)
In this experiment, who would be the experimental group?
A) The 70-degree class.
B) Because of ethics, there was no experimental group.
C) The 85-degree class.
D) Both groups are experimental groups.

Modernity has largely led to the collapse of strong marital ties and subsequently affected the choice of mates. Critically provide a four (4)- point coherent and logical underpinnings to prove the truth or otherwise of this statement.
Answer:
The explanation including its given subject is listed throughout the subsection on descriptions elsewhere here.
Explanation:
Different groups of individuals describe it in diverse situations. Not social scientists are perfectly willing to come up with a single definition. We would then legislate morality for everyone's reasons of course as a formally enforceable social agreement made between two individuals, main provisions on something like committed relations as well as trying to claim the union's preservation. They should perhaps take into account differences in building a positive concept, including whether a legitimate legislative partnership is required or whether upwards of two individuals can be actively engaged. Many differences throughout the understanding of marriage could include for certain if partners should be of opposite genders or about the same genders, as well as because one of the common stereotypes of marriage is understood today.As we sometimes conclude from Simmel's study, the forms of the traditional family in which everyone or one of several aspects are represented are diversified: nuclear, polygamy, extended communities, parents of almost the same ethnicity, single-parent, mixed families, etc.Sociologists become concerned with the relationships between some of the traditional societies since marriages become traditionally what creates a household, therefore families are perhaps the very most fundamental social component about which community is founded. Both the marriage as well as the family establish status structures that the community approves.Nancy, aged 70, has a vacant plot adjacent to her house that she intends to bequeath to her grandson Roy upon her death. However, an important railroad project is being undertaken nearby and the local authorities have informed Nancy that the new railroad will cover her vacant lot. They have also promised her fair compensation in return. Can the government take her property?
Answer:
Yes, the government can take her property.
Explanation:
The government can take Nancy's property because it has eminent domain over the property. In other words, it means that the government can take private property and make it a public giving the owner compensation for the land. Besides, there has to be a public purpose for the eminent domain over the plot; which, could be the construction of roads, railroads, or public buildings.
