Jonas's parents taught him that animals that say "woof" and have fur, a tail, and four legs are called "dogs." he saw a new animal and thought it was a dog until it "meowed." jonas's parents told him it was a "cat." jonas could now distinguish between dog and cat depending on the sound the animal made. this revision of jonas's schema of a "dog" best illustrates:
a. assimilation.
b. accommodation.
c. infantile amnesia.
d. object permanence.

B. Accommodation

Explanation:

Jonas was told that an animal with fur is a dog so when he sees the cat for the first time, the first thing that comes to mind is a dog however when the cat makes a "meowed"sound , based on sound differences he could see this wasn't a dog and his parents told him that this is a cat.

Now he has to modify his schema to accommodate this new information

A schema is an organized knowlegde restored in our memory, the organization of information is crucial to understand and make sense of the world around us.

This is what accomodation is , we don't alter our schema but we modify it so that we can accommodate the new Information that we have learnt
