Please NEED HELP
could you check my answer
Disagree with all. Use your textbook!
according to a gestalt principle caller ,when we're looking at crowd of people, we tend to perceive people grouped close together as belonging to a common or related group
Yes, I can help you with that. Here's a breakdown of each question:
9. The correct answer is C. functionalism. Functionalism focuses on understanding the purpose or function of mental processes, including behavior. Dr. Marsh's research, which aims to understand what the mind does in producing different kinds of behavior, aligns with the principles of functionalism.
10. The correct answer is A. Texture gradient is a monocular cue. Depth perception is the ability to perceive the relative distance of objects in three-dimensional space. Texture gradient is a monocular cue because it can be perceived with one eye alone (without binocular vision) and relies on the diminishing detail and texture of objects as they recede into the distance.
11. The correct answer is D. color perception. Rods and cones are photoreceptor cells located in the retina of the eye. Rods are responsible for vision in low-light conditions and are more sensitive to light intensity. Cones, on the other hand, are responsible for color vision and are more sensitive to different wavelengths of light.
12. The correct answer is D. the axon. Neurons are made up of various components, including dendrites (which receive incoming signals), the cell body (which integrates these signals), and the axon (which transmits signals to other neurons). The myelin sheath, a fatty covering, insulates the axon and helps to speed up the transmission of nerve impulses.
So, in summary, your answers are correct:
9. C
10. A
11. D
12. D
Certainly! Let's go through your answers and explanations for each question:
9. The correct answer is C. functionalism. Dr. Marsh's research, focusing on understanding what the mind does in producing different kinds of behavior, aligns with the principles of functionalism. It is concerned with how mental processes serve adaptive purposes and contribute to an individual's survival and well-being.
10. The correct answer is D. The change in position of an object relative to the retina is a binocular cue. This statement is true. Binocular cues, such as the changing position of an object on the retina as we move our head or eyes, contribute to our perception of depth. The other options are incorrect: A is false because texture gradient is a monocular cue, B is false because relative size is not directly related to color perception, and C is false because motion parallax is detected through monocular cues such as the relative movement of objects in our field of vision.
11. The correct answer is D. color perception. This analogy states that rods are to light intensity as cones are to color perception. Rods are photoreceptor cells in the retina that are more sensitive to low levels of light and contribute to our ability to see in dim or low-light conditions. Cones, on the other hand, are responsible for our color vision and are most active in well-lit conditions. Option D accurately represents this relationship.
12. The correct answer is A. dendrites. The myelin sheath, a fatty covering that surrounds axons, serves to insulate and protect the axon, not the dendrites. The myelin sheath helps enhance the speed and efficiency of electrical signal transmission along the axon, ensuring that the signal reaches its destination intact. Option A correctly identifies the location of the myelin sheath as surrounding the axon.
In summary, your answers for questions 9, 10, 11, and 12 are correct. Well done! If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask.
