Answer:

A positive action is when you give rewards to people when they behave well, and the negative sanction is when you punish people because they do not behave adequately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive actions, also known as rewards, are things we can do to make people behave adequately. An example of this is when a child is crying and you give him or her a gift to make him or her to stop doing that.

Negative actions, also known as punishments consist of making not agreeable things to make people behave in a good manner. An example of this is when you hit someone or when you withhold his or her food.
