In classical conditioning, how long the organism takes to learn an association is called: question 1 options: acquisition generalization discrimination extinction

By the time the organism learns stimulus discrimination it has learned the association and in the extinction stage the classical conditioning gets over. So the correct option would be discrimination.

Learning by association means learning of several events occurring together which either may be two stimuli or the response along with its consequences. Conditioning can be referred as the process of learning by association and classical conditioning is the learning which occurs involving linking of two or more stimuli and then anticipating the event.

There are five major processes involved in classical conditioning:

•Acquisition- organism learns to get associated

•Stimulus Generalization- organism produces behaviour identical to the conditional response when it is confronted by a stimulus similar to conditional stimulus.

•Stimulus Discrimination- The organism’s ability to learn to differentiate between other stimuli and conditional stimulus.

•Extinction- In this process the classical conditioning is over and subject does not produce conditional response to the conditional stimulus.

•Spontaneous recovery- The sudden response of the organism with conditional response as a reaction to any stimulus.

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.  

bacteria could be both, harmful and to us. harmful bacteria could make us sick and probably even by getting the chances of getting a disease, but good bacteria fight it off with your immune system. there is always bacteria everywhere we go. we need to make sure to wash our hands after using the restroom, before eating, after eating, after petting an animal too. so you see, bacteria is everywhere and is harmful or . i hope this . : ) : ) : )
