Mikaya loves to swim in the river near her house. after swimming in the river one afternoon, she saw two alligators by the dock. when she saw them swimming towards her, mikaya's heart began pounding with fear. now when she goes near the dock she shakes with fear. identify the elements of classical conditioning below. ucs
a. alligators ucr
b. dock (before the conditioning) cs
c. dock (after the conditioning) cr
d. shake with fear ns e) heart pounding in fear

The answer is:  

a)The alligators are the unconditioned stimulus (UCS), the alligators are the stimulus in the environment that produced a behavior (fear).  

b)The dock, before the conditioning is the neutral stimulus (NS) because it had no effect on Mikaya before the conditioning happened.  

c)The dock after the conditioning is the conditioned stimulus (CS) because after the conditioning it is associated with the unconditioned stimulus, in this case the alligators, and now produces the same response, in this case, fear.  

d)Shake with fear is the conditioned response (CR) is the response that is produced when the conditioned stimulus (the dock) is associated with the unconditioned stimulus (the alligators).

e)Heart pounding with fear is the unconditioned response (UCR), that is the response that Mikaya experimented before the conditioning, when she first saw the alligators.  

in 1897, pershing became a tactical officer at west point, and that's where he was given the nickname "black jack." pershing's first name is "john," for which "jack" is a nickname, and he was a white man who commanded black troops. hence "black jack".

d

step-by-step explanation:

an inequality is an expression which means more than one number is a solution. we graph the solutions on a number line to show all possible values. we graph using circles and arrows.

this is a filled in circle on -2 so this is . this means only answers c and d are options.

answer d points to the right.
