Aaron keeps texting throughout his study session. why should he minimize such distractions? to recognize his priorities to avoid breaks to maintain his to do list to stay focused

D, to stay focused

Explanation:

Texting is a distracting activity that affects concentration. Although many claim that it can be done while involved in another activity (so called multitasking), it is proven that it takes away one's focus and attention.

Aaron may think he can do both, study and text during a class because it seems easy to him. His mind will however wander to to person he is texting with, or to the content of the text. He might lose some piece of important information given during the class as he would be watching his phone during that time.

well stockyards mean a large yard containing pens and sheds, typically adjacent to a slaughterhouse, in which livestock is kept and sorted. and i'm assuming that by party you   mean a large group of people which does make sense because chicago is a very crowded place much like new york. stockyards tend to take up a lot of room due to needing the area for pens to keep animals in and the fact that stockyards are usually right by slaughterhouse where they process and distribute the product. so its much like a zoo but with some dead animal products close by.
