Answer to Question 1

Naturalistic observation involves watching people or other animals in their natural habitats. This type of research has high ecological validity and usually low reactivity. It has great flexibility, but lacks control. In addition, it tends to be costly and time-consuming. Laboratory observation involves watching people or other animals in an artificial laboratory setting. The ecological validity is questionable, and the reactivity tends to be higher. It has great control but lacks flexibility. It also tends to be less costly and time-consuming than naturalistic observation.

Answer to Question 2

Looking at the sun may not only cause headache and distort your vision temporarily, but it can also cause permanent eye damage.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
