Answer

The answer is Negative.

Explanation
Option 1: Positive

Positive symptoms in the context of mental health, particularly in disorders like schizophrenia, refer to the presence of abnormal behaviors or experiences that are not typically found in healthy individuals. These include hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Inappropriate affect does not fall under this category.

Option 2: Negative

Negative symptoms refer to the absence or reduction of normal behaviors or functions. Inappropriate affect, which is an emotional response that is not congruent with the situation or the individual's internal state, is considered a negative symptom. This is because it reflects a disruption in the normal emotional expression and regulation, which is a reduction in normal functioning.

Question 27, 6.3.18 Part 3 of 3 HW Score: 50.76%, 23.86 of 47 points Chapter 6 Review Homework Kennedy Pierre 11/04/24 8:04 PM A genetics experiment involves a population of fruit flies consisting of 3 males named Al, Billy, and Carl and 1 female named Dana. Assume that two fruit flies are randomly selected with replacement. a. After listing the possible samples and finding the proportion of males in each sample, use a table to describe the sampling distribution of the proportion of males. Proportion of males Probability 0 0.0625 0.5 0.375 1 0.5625 (Type integers or fractions.) b. Find the mean of the sampling distribution. μ=0.75 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) c. Is the mean of the sampling distribution [from part (b)] equal to the population proportion of males? If so, does the mean of the sampling distribution of proportions always equal the population proportion? A. No, the sample mean is equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is a biased estimator. B. Yes, the sample mean is equal to the population proportion of males. These values are always equal, because proportion is a biased estimator. C. No, the sample mean is equal to the population proportion of males. These values are not always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator. D. Yes, the sample mean is equal to the population proportion of males. These values are always equal, because proportion is an unbiased estimator.

Given the information in this table, how would you explain the difference in greenhouse effect strength for each of the planets? Choose one or more: A. Earth has a much higher percentage of nitrogen in its atmosphere, causing it to have a stronger greenhouse effect than Venus and Mars. B. Mars has a weak greenhouse effect because it has very low surface pressure (indicating a very thin atmosphere). C. Venus has a very strong greenhouse effect because it has a high percentage of carbon dioxide in its atmosphere and also a high surface pressure (indicating a very thick atmosphere). D. Venus and Mars both have a very high percentage of carbon dioxide in their atmospheres, creating a stronger greenhouse effect than Earth's atmosphere, which has very little. E. Planets that are closer to the Sun will have a stronger greenhouse effect than those farther away from the Sun.
