After being classically conditioned to salivate to a tone, a dog continues to hear a tone but does not receive food; as a result, salivation will decrease, then disappear. A dog owner may use operant conditioning to train a dog to "sit" by presenting a treat each time the dog sits. However, the behavior may diminish if the treats are discontinued. Both examples illustrate:

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

extinction

Explanation:

Based on the information provided in regards to the situation at hand it can be said that both of these examples illustrate extinction. This term refers the fading out of conditioned responses over time if they are not properly reinforced. This is what is happening in this situation since the dog is not reinforced with food for salivating then the response begins to fade until it is completely gone.

Explanation:

Skin color in a certain species of fish is inherited via a single gene with four different alleles. One fish of this type has alleles 1 and 3 (S1S

and its mate has alleles 2 and 4 (S2S4). If each allele confers a unit of color darkness such that S1 has one unit, S2 has two units, and so on, then what proportion of their offspring would be expected to have five units of color?
A) 1/4
B) 1/5
C) 1/8
D) 1/2
E) 0

Answers

The answer is D) 1/2.

If each allele confers a unit of color darkness, then only genotypes S2S3 and S1S4 will have 5 units of color darkness because in genotype S2S3 S2 will have 2 units, and S3 will have 3 units, which is 5 units in total. The similar math is for genotypes S1S4.

Now, let's cross S1S3 and S2S4:
Parents:          S1S3      x     S2S4
Offspring:  S1S2    S1S4     S2S3     S3S4

The offspring with genotype S1S2 will have 3 units of color darkness. The offspring with genotype S1S4 will have 5 units, as well as the offspring with genotype S2S3. The offspring with genotype S3S4 will have 7 units.
It can be assumed that only 2 genotypes out of 4 will have 5 units:
2/4 = 1/2.

Which best describes how the fossil record supports the theory of evolution?

Answers

fossil records show us that over time animals have 'changed' and become better adapted to their surroundings and so we can see similar characteristics in a horse from 100, 000 years ago in our present day horses. This supports the theory of evolution

When you heat up an object, the particles in the object move which way?

Answers

When you heat up an object, the particles in the object move away from the heat source. The heat energy form the source transfers to the particles which causes them to be excited to move and go in any direction away from the source. It increases the kinetic energy of the particles.

What geological theory explains how llamas and camels, close relatives, might be found on different sides of the world?

Answers

The answer is continental drift. 
Continental drift is the geological theory that explains how continents move through Earth's surface. All continents were once connected as one supercontinent Pangea. On that supercontinent, many related species, such as llamas and camels, lived together on one location. But after continents spread apart, related species were separated on different continents and adapted to different conditions

Which of the following is not a method used to improve management of tropical rainforests?a. increased loggingb. establishing special reserves for critical speciesc. utilize better agricultural techniquesd. the use of plantationsPlease select the best answer from the choices providedO B

Answers

Answer: Logging (A)

Explanation:

Logging occurs so that the land can be cleared so that the land can be used for other things Logging is harmful as it releases a lot of carbon dioxide into the environment. Logging also contributes approximately 12%-16% to greenhouse gas emissions and also it impacts the climate, causes soil erosion, flooding and desertification

The rest of the options that are given is to help conserve the rain forest.
