question 25

Multiple Choice

• A)It cannot be determined with the information given.
• B)Yes; a cross between red and white flowers would yield all pink offspring.
• C)No; he would still have seen the dominant and recessive traits reappear in the F₂ generation.
• D)Yes; there is always a wide range of phenotypes in monohybrid crosses.

DRL

Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates, a behavior modification technique used to encourage low rates of behaviors by providing reinforcement only if the behavior occurs at or below a prescribed rate.

DRO

Differential Reinforcement of Other behavior; a strategy where reinforcement is provided for any behavior that is not the undesired target behavior.

DRL

Differential Reinforcement of Lower rates of behavior, a technique used to decrease frequent behaviors without completely eliminating them.
