Answer:

b. Weber's law

Explanation:

Weber's law states the in order for a person to experience a change in the intensity of a stimulus the difference between the initial and final exposure must be large.

Here, initially the light was at 25 watts and then was turned to its maximum. Later the light was at 90 watts then it was turned to its maximum. In the first case the difference between the initial and final stimulus is large and so my roomate was able to tell the difference. While in the later case the initial stimulus was already close to the maximum and did not notice when it was at the actual maximum.

Hence, my roommate did not notice that the light has increased.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Today, there is a great loss of healthy habits both in the adult population and in school children. On many occasions, schoolchildren are provided with the food they want or they do not take the necessary time to teach them to have a good diet and, on other occasions because parents, educators or school leaders do not have good eating habits.

It should be noted that children or school children learn family eating habits, that is, if adults do not eat vegetables, obviously children will not take it either.

This situation of poor food choices does not lead to more or less severe malnutrition. Usually the clinical problem that appears is the development of deficiency states, especially in micronutrients. The best example that a child can get is watching their fmiliares eat healthy since they are living in a stage that everything they see mimic it, so for them to create healthy eating habits, they should change the way they eat at home Similarly.
