Answer: c) Substage 3: Secondary circular reactions
Explanation:
Piaget's theory posits that children go through four different stages of cognitive development. Their mental development includes language, morals, memory and the like.
The sensorimotor stage is the earliest in Piaget's theory of cognitive development and is described as a period of tremendous growth and change.
It is divided into substages, the third of which is called SECONDARY CIRCULAR REACTIONS where the child becomes more focused on the outside world and begins to repeat activities to derive joy from them such as picking up a toy to put in their mouth.

Hyperinflation is:
An inflation rate in excess of 200 percent, lasting at least one year.
An inflation rate in excess of 20 percent, lasting at least one year.
A common problem in the United States.
The movement of taxpayers to higher tax brackets because of rising price
Answer:
A). An inflation rate in excess of 200 percent, lasting at least one year.
Explanation:
Hyperinflation is demonstrated as the 'inflation rate that is in 200% excess and lasts for a minimum of one year'. In simple terms, it is elucidated as the monetary inflation at an accelerating rate. Inflation is stated as the term used for describing the hike of prices of goods and services in an economy while hyperinflation is elucidated as the excessive inflation that ends up in crumbling the true value of the domestic currency, decline in aggregate supply, tax revenue, as well as in exports. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
Goals that are so big, inspiring, and outside the prevailing paradigm that they hit people in the gut and shift their thinking are called ______ goals.
Answer:
Goals that are so big, inspiring, and outside the prevailing paradigm that they hit people in the gut and shift their thinking are called big hairy audacious goals.
Explanation:
In the field of business, a big hairy audacious can be described as a compelling goal for which an organization must strive. Big hairy audacious goals tend to excite and energize people in an appropriate way.
Big hairy audacious goals tends to compel workers of an organization to pull together and perform tasks for achieving the bigger goal.
Big hairy audacious goals have the capability to change the thinking of the workers and force them to wok hard and achieve the inspiring goals.
Goals that vastly inspire and prompt a shift in thinking are referred to as moonshot or stretch goals. They contrast with less effective, vague goals and emphasize the importance of setting specific, challenging, but achievable targets.
Explanation:Goals that are so big, inspiring, and outside the prevailing paradigm that they hit people in the gut and shift their thinking are often referred to as moonshot goals or stretch goals. These are the kind of ambitions that go beyond incremental improvements and aim for transformative change. Research by Locke & Latham (2006) has found that groups are more effective when they set specific, difficult, yet attainable goals, such as "improve sales by 10% over the next six months" as opposed to vague ambitions like "let's sell as much as we can!".
Moonshot or stretch goals aspire to achieve something that may seem nearly impossible at the time, challenging a group's most foundational ideas, ideals, and values. This is in contrast to abstract idea words like "dream," "love," or "curiosity," which are intangible and cannot be directly experienced through the five senses. The idea of setting concrete goals is further reinforced with the notion that "A goal unwritten is just a good idea," emphasizing the importance of committing goals to writing to turn them into tangible expectations.
Aisha has been going through an emotionally tough time after the separation from her long-term partner, and her psychotherapist suggested some hypnotic sessions. During these sessions, Aisha has started vaguely recalling being fondled by her father as a baby while he was giving her baths. Memories of this type are referred to as:______.
A. recovered memories.
B. unconscious memories.
C. unknown memories.
D. regressed memories
Answer:A. recovered memories.
Explanation:Recovered memory is a memory of a traumatic event which took place during the childhood,which is later discovered to be invalid or untrue.
Aisha vague recollection of how her father fondled her breast while bathing her is a recovered memory.
Recovered memory can be very devastating as it can cause the person affected to be depressed and experience trauma and other emotional issues.
Recovered memories refer to previously forgotten memories of often traumatic events that are later recalled, a concept that is both controversial and significant in societal implications due to the risk of implanting false memories. Hence the correct option is A.
In the given scenario, where Aisha is recalling events that she had not previously been conscious of during hypnotic sessions, this type of memory is referred to as recovered memories. Recovered memories are those that have been forgotten, often due to their traumatic nature, and are later recalled, sometimes with the help of therapeutic techniques such as hypnosis or guided imagery. The concept of recovered memories is controversial; while some researchers believe these repressed memories can be retrieved intact through therapy, others argue that the processes used to 'recover' memories may actually implant false memories, thereby leading individuals to recall events inaccurately or that never occurred at all, with significant societal implications.
Select the FALSE statement from below: A. Asking for participant feedback may cause a session to end on a negative note. Therefore, you should avoid asking for feedback. B. Forming partnerships with other organizations or getting sponsorship from the business community can help defray some of the expenses for supplies, materials, and refreshments. C. Taking photographs of preparedness sessions may be useful for promoting future sessions. Remember, you should get releases from individuals before publishing the photographs. D. Working with faith-based organizations, libraries, civic associations, schools, or government office buildings may help you locate space for hosting the sessions.
Answer:
A. Asking for participant feedback may cause a session to end on a negative note. Therefore, you should avoid asking for feedback.
Explanation:
Experiences are not the same, which is why, after any event, program or workshop, it’s important to gather feedback from as much participants as you possibly can. This will make sure that you are receiving the most valuable and helpful feedback, it should be noted that asking for participant feedback can never cause a session to end on negative note, in face it would give you some positive note to work on for other events.
Some scientific explanations are so well established that no new evidence is likely to alter them. The explanation becomes a scientific theory. In everyday language a theory means a hunch or speculation. Not so in science. In science, the word theory refers to a comprehensive explanation of an important feature of nature supported by facts gathered over time. Theories also allow scientists to make predictions about as yet unobserved phenomena.
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experimentation. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. The theory of biological evolution is more than "just a theory." It is as factual an explanation of the universe as the atomic theory of matter (stating that everything is made of atoms) or the germ theory of disease (which states that many diseases are caused by germs). Our understanding of gravity is still a work in progress. But the phenomenon of gravity, like evolution, is an accepted fact.
Not some key features of theories that are important to understand from this description:
A. Theories are explanations of natural phenomenon. They aren't predictions (although we may use theories to make predictions). They are explanations why we observe something.
B. Theories aren't likely to change. They have so much support and are able to explain satisfactorily so many observations, that they are not likely to change. Theories can, indeed, be facts. Theories can change, but it is a long and difficult process. In order for a theory to change, there must be many observations or evidence that the theory cannot explain.
C. Theories are not guesses. The phrase "just a theory" has no room in science. To be a scientific theory carries a lot of weight; it is not just one person's idea about something.
NOTE some key features of theories that are important to understand from this description:
Answer:
B. Theories aren't likely to change. They have so much support and are able to explain satisfactorily so many observations, that they are not likely to change. Theories can, indeed, be facts. Theories can change, but it is a long and difficult process. In order for a theory to change, there must be many observations or evidence that the theory cannot explain.
Explanation:
From the passage or description of the word scientific theory, it was concluded that:
1. Theory is a scientific explanations, well defined or established that now new evidence will change them
2. Theory may change or their interpretation may change, but not the facts that are well determined in the theory.
3. Theory can be used to predict unobserved situation or phenomenon based on the facts well established by the theory.
4. Theory in scientific terms is different from general usage of the term.
As theory in science explaexplainsin well defined facts, while the general usage are often times mean hunch or speculation.
Problem PageQuestion There are dishes that need to be rinsed. Reuben can rinse them in minutes by himself. It will take his friend Tony minutes to rinse these dishes. How long will it take them if they rinse these dishes together?
Answer:
(More than minutes + a minutes )/2
Explanation:
From the two questions, 2 people are involved, Reuben and tony, if it takes Reuben 1 minutes to wash the dishes and mite than a minute to wash by tony. The arithmetic is the addition of both time and divided by the number of people involved.
I.e (the number of minutes for Reuben + number of minutes by tony)/2.
Answer: it will take a fewer minutes less than both the minutes Reuben and Tony will use.
Explanation:
If Reuben can do 630 dishes in 105 minutes. Therefore he would wash 630/105 dishes in 1 minute.
And if Tony can do 630 dishes in 70 minutes. Therefore, he would wash 630/70 dishes in 1 minute.
That means that if they wash the dishes together, every minute would mean that they would be able to wash (630/105)+(630/70)=15 dishes in 1 minute.
Since there are 630 dishes to be washed, they would take together
630/15=42 minutes
A horse was mistreated and trained with a whip. When the horse did not respond to the trainer, the trainer raised her hand with the whip and hit the horse. The horse then moved to a new owner who did not use a whip or pain to train her horses. The first time she raised her hand up toward the horse, the horse backed up and bucked. Place in order the steps of counterconditioning that the new owner would use to retrain the horse not to buck with fear to a raised hand.
To retrain the mistreated horse, the new owner should conduct counterconditioning by establishing a positive reinforcer, exposing the horse to the non-threatening raised hand while reinforcing calm behavior, decreasing the distance gradually, making the raised hand a predictor of positive experiences, and repeatedly reinforcing this new association.
Explanation:The retraining of the mistreated horse requires a process known as counterconditioning, where an undesirable behavior is replaced with a more desirable response in the presence of the feared stimulus. Here, the feared stimulus is the raised hand, which initially triggers the horse's fear response due to its past experience with a whip. The new owner needs to create a positive association with the raised hand, which can be done through the following steps:
Identify a positive reinforcer for the horse, such as a favorite treat or gentle patting, that would increase the desired behavior.Expose the horse to the raised hand at a distance where it does not exhibit fear or bucking, while simultaneously offering the positive reinforcer.Gradually decrease the distance between the raised hand and the horse, continuing to reinforce the calm behavior at each step.Ensure that the raised hand becomes a predictor of positive experiences, thus increasing the likelihood that the horse will not buckle up in fear.Repeat these steps consistently until the horse shows no signs of fear when a hand is raised, effectively retraining the horse to disregard the raised hand as a threat.
In relation to the study of education, the __________ perspective would emphasize the daily activities within the schools, the various forms of communication between teachers and pupils, examine the influence of peer groups, and look at the reaction when school rules are broken or followed.
Answer:
The symbolic interactionist perspective would emphasize the daily activities within the schools, the various forms of communication between teachers and pupils, examine the influence of peer groups, and look at the reaction when school rules are broken or followed.
Explanation:
Symbolic interactionist studies focus on relationships among individuals within a society - in this case, a school. Symbolic interactionists believe people make sense of the social world through communication, in which there is the exchange of symbols and their meanings. Different circumstances attribute different meanings to things. Since symbolic interactionist studies aim to understand the symbolic world in which individuals are involved, they tend to have a qualitative approach, observing or deeply interviewing participants.

What is the theoretical position developed by karl marx?
Answer: Conflict Between Social Groups
Explanation:
When conducting an experiment on how stimuli are represented by the firing of neurons, you notice that neurons respond differently to different faces. For example, Arthur's face causes three neurons to fire, with neuron 1 responding the most and neuron 3 responding the least. Roger's face causes three different neurons to fire, with neuron 7 responding the least and neuron 9 responding the most. Your results support ____ coding.a. specificity b. distributed c. convergence d. divergence
Answer:
Distributed coding
Explanation:
When conducting an experiment on how stimuli are represented by the firing of neurons, you notice that neurons respond differently to different faces is a Distributed coding.
The different respond of a person's face is represent in the nervous system by the firing of a group of neurons each responding to a different number of faces, the concept of distributed neural coding proposes that a specific object like a face is represented across a number of neuron and only respond only to specific stimulus.
Arthur's face causes three neurons to fire, with neuron 1 responding the most and neuron 3 responding the least. Roger's face causes three different neurons to fire, with neuron 7 responding the least and neuron 9 responding the most. The firing of the neuron are as a result of different specific face in both Arthur's face and Roger's face.
Answer:
Option B is correct
Explanation:
Sensations are determined by distribution of of combination of receptor response.
Two similar rodent species are consistently more different from each other when they occupy the same habitat than when they live separately. What is the most likely explanation for the increased divergence when they live together
Answer:
Character displacement & Evolution by natural selection
Explanation:
Character displacement is the name used to illustrate an evolutionary change that happens when two related or similar species inhabit the same environment. Under this type of conditions, natural selection supports a divergence in the characters--morphology, behavior, ecology, or physiology--of the living organisms.
While natural selection refers to the differential survival and reproduction of species in an environment due to differences in phenotype. It is a vital mechanism of evolution, the change in the genetic traits and characteristic of a population over several generations.

Imagine that you just had a "close call" while driving, but now you feel your body returning to normal. Which part of your nervous system is controlling this return to normalcy?
Answer: The parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system
Explanation:The autonomic nervous system is crucial in maintaining our body process without us being consciously involved in the process . The autonomic system involuntarily regulates our body functions such as heart beat, blood flow ,digestion and breathing.
The parasympathetic part is the one which restore our normal body functions and conserves physical resources. It is also responsible for tasks like slowing down the heart rate
and constricting eye pupils.
Whilst the sympathetic division is part of autonomic nervous system that is responsible for regulating our flight or fight response , which is a response that occurs when we are under frightening or stressful situation.
Two TSA officers are scanning bags at the airport. One of the officers lets a bag go through when the other officer yells, "Wait, didn't you see that? Its hidden under something in the bag." Why one officer saw a weapon and the other did not is best explained by
Answer:
signal detection theory.
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this scenario is best explained by signal detection theory. This theory refers to the difference between being able to detect information in information bearing patterns as opposed to random patterns that distract from the information at hand. Which is what happened in this scenario since the TSA officer is constantly checking bags for contraband but rarely checks for hidden contraband.
Final answer:
One TSA officer saw a weapon in a bag while another did not likely due to heightened airport security procedures and varied factors like training, angles of view, and attention levels.
Explanation:
The scenario described where one TSA officer saw a weapon in a bag while the other did not can best be explained by understanding airport security practices and procedures. Since the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and subsequent attempts such as the "shoe bomber" and the attempted bombing by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, TSA restrictions and security measures have dramatically increased.
These measures include the use of advanced body-scan machines, enhanced pat-downs, and the scrutiny of luggage to detect concealed weapons or bombs. The difference in detection might be due to a variety of factors including training levels, angle of view of the X-ray machine, or momentary inattention by one of the officers.

West Agricultural Services, Inc. ("WAS"), stores approximately 100,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate on its property in three storage tanks for use in agriculture fertilizer. Ammonium nitrate is highly explosive if it comes into contact with an ignition source. WAS has taken all necessary precautions to prevent any explosions. If an explosion were to occur with resulting injuries, WAS could be liable under the strict liability theory for damages proximately caused by:
Answer: an abnormally dangerous activity
Explanation: Strict liability theory is a theory that imposes legal responsibility for damages or injuries even if the person who was found strictly liable did not act with fault or negligence. The individual bringing the claim need only prove that the tort occurred and that the defendant was responsible.
The law imposes strict liability to situations it considers to be inherently dangerous, such as the situation whereby West Agricultural Services, Inc. stores such quantity of ammonium nitrate, which by the way is highly explosive, on its property.
It does not matter that they took all precautions and didn't mean for an explosion to occur, the company is liable if injuries occur as a result of an explosion.
