Question 2

Travis has been training his puppy, Belle, to sit by the back door and bark when she wants to go outside and do her business. First, Travis let her out, provided her with tons of praise, and gave her a treat (all presumed reinforcers) if she sat by the back door and then when outside and urinated. Then, Travis withheld reinforcement for this behavior and provided the reinforcers only if she sat by the door and made a small noise (i.e., a whine). Now that she does that well, Travis is withholding reinforcement for that behavior and only providing the reinforcers if she sits by the door and makes a bark. What has Travis been doing?
 
  a. Shaping sitting by the door and barking when Belle has to urinate.
  b. Using differential reinforcement to teach Belle to sit by the door and bark when she has to urinate.
  c. Using backward chaining to teach Belle to sit by the door and bark when she has to urinate.
  d. A & B
  e. B & C

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.
