Answer to Question 1

should be consistent with the definitions of each of the following: topography (gradually changing the form of a behavior), frequency (gradually changing the number of responses per unit of time required), latency (gradually increasing or decreasing the time between the onset of an antecedent stimulus and the occurrence of the behavior), duration (gradually increasing or decreasing the total elapsed time for the occurrence of the behavior), and amplitude

Answer to Question 2

A successive approximation is an intermediate behavior that is either a prerequisite for the terminal behavior or a higher order member of the same response topography as the terminal behavior.
