Answer 1

d. a secondary punisher

Step-by-step explanation:

The secondary punisher, also known as conditional punishment, is in the daily life of both humans and animals, which in this case is used to train and tame some species of animals. The technique consists in giving a scolding or criticizing, for performing an inappropriate behavior, to discourage the continuation of this conduct. That is, Kyla scolds her dog so that the dog loses the inappropriate habit of begging for food at the table. This is an example of a secondary punisher.

Answer 2

A. Positive reinforcement

Step-by-step explanation:

A positive reinforcement is when one experiences a negative or undesired output they give a negative or undesired consequence as a result of that output. As in this case when Axel begs for food, Kyla scolds it so that it does not continue with the same response. As a result of which the response becomes less likely in the future.
