Africa is a continent that teems with interesting animals. many people travel to africa to see these wonders of nature. people who travel to africa often choose to go on safaris. a safari is a journey or trip. according to etymologists, the word safari appeared in the mid- to late-1800s. it was first used to refer to a hunting trip, usually to africa. now, people commonly use it to describe a trip during which people view many types of wildlife.

the nature in africa is unlike any other place on earth. africa has one of the most diverse animal populations in the world. however, many people who go on safaris hope to see the “big five” animals. the big five include the lion, the leopard, the elephant, the rhino, and the buffalo. africa is the only place where the big five live together in the wild. not everyone on a safari will see all of the big five. the number of each type of animal varies in different parts of the continent. the best place to see a large assortment of wild animals is at a park or a reserve.

the support that the author, uses in the article facing our fears is a): a definition of the part of the brain called the amygdala.

he takes neuroscientist joseph ledoux's words by telling that by falling to distinguish between evolutionary old systems located in the amygdala and newer systems, centered in the prefrontal cortex, doctors have conflated non conscious threat circuits in the brain with circuits that underlie the conscious experience of fear. that, the author says, "leads ledoux to the jarring conclusion that the amygdala, a decades-old centerpiece of the brain's fear circuit, does not underlie the conscious feeling of fear".

despite this, the author points out in the article that that is a controversial notion and that evidence, in animal and humans, supports the idea that core emotions can exist outside of conscious awareness.
