D. Precocity
The precocity of young chess players is evident when winning competitors are under age twelve. Precocity means a skill development much earlier than normal, it makes sense within the context of child chess prodigies.
Neils will admire Gerda as she admires him.
Explanation:
Neils was a horse and a man, made into a single mold. He was a charming young man who attracted even the ladies older than him. He was deceived by Mrs. Boye and later he met a young girl named Gerda.
Gerda was young and she died soon after their marriage. Her love changed from her husband to her Christmas God. Neils felt betrayed of love.
Even when he was wounded in the war and died, he did not bend to religion.
Answer:
A) The correct answer is C) the mistake helpfully reveals the way Azy's mind works.
B) The correct option is D) "Maybe this can teach us a little bit about how he thinks."
Explanation:
A) Azy - an Orangutan in captivity which is being used for experiments in the behaviour of primates, especially learning, is presented with a bag containing food.
Azy is given options on a screen to select from, and instead of picking food, he picks another symbol which represents a container.
According to the researchers, the right answer would have been the symbol which connotes food. However, Shumaker is elated to note that the Orangutans have the ability to put things into categories.
B) In the last paragraph of the excerpt, Shumaker states that in his opinion, the mistake shows that Azy in his mind is learning or can put objects into categories and that that by itself could be a pointer to how Orangutans think.

Answer:
a). 'Absolute Threshold' is demonstrated as the least or minimum stimulation or arousal required to detect or perceive a specific external stimulus by our senses(sight, smell, touch, vision, hear) at least half of the time(50%). In the given situation, Marisol would require to feel the ardor of the atmosphere around her to discover the actual temperature, at least half of the time.
b). The difference threshold is exemplified as the difference of variation that is required between two external stimuli to be able to perceive a difference among them. In the given situation, if there's change/variation in the temperature Marisol would be able to detect it due to the existence of a difference between the two temperatures.
c). Selective attention is described as indulging your focus selectively onto one particular stimulus while ignoring the others at the same time. Such attention would contribute to Marisol to focus on specific stimuli associated with the winter weather.
