Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Strict behaviorists believe that behavior is a reflection of an accumulated history of events associated with reinforcement and punishment. Behavior analysts believe that, although biological and genetic factors may mediate the kinds of responses that can be performed, it is the environment that controls behavior. Social cognitive theorists, however, believe that biological, internal, and environmental factors play a mutual, interactive role in contributing to development. The differences between these three learning theory camps are a good example of the multi-faceted continuum of the nature-nurture debate.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
