Answer and Explanation:

In his poem "O Captain! My Captain!", Whitman provides clues about the unnatural death of the captain when he mentions the blood dropping on the deck of the ship. People who die naturally - of natural causes - do not usually bleed. Bleeding is the result of being hurt, injured, be it in an accident or due to violence.

<em>O the bleeding drops of red, </em>

<em>                               Where on the deck my Captain lies, </em>

<em>                                  Fallen cold and dead.</em>

<em />

As we know, the fallen captain is none other than Abraham Lincoln, who had been shot and killed. The whole poem is a metaphor for his death as well as the victory of the Union in the Civil War. Whitman is lamenting Lincoln being gone, having been murdered before he could see and celebrate victory with the country.

hjlf

Answer:

The correct answer would be Cognitive Map.

Explanation:

Tabetha has a mental picture of the layout of her house, also called a Cognitive Map, so when she comes home late at night, she can navigate through the rooms without turning the lights on.

Cognitive Mapping is a concept which was introduced by Edward Tolman in 1948. In simple words, cognitive mapping is the mental representation on ones physical environment or space.

In technical terms, a cognitive map is a mental representation of an individual in which he acquires, codes, stores and recalls and decodes the information about a certain location in everyday environment.

So when Tabetha navigates through her house without turning on the lights, she actually has a cognitive map in her mind.
