Answer:

The behaviors I chose are the thoughts that Michelle and John had which is being in a deep conversation.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Examining. Identify one behavior about which you can form a hypothesis. Which behavior did you choose?

The behavior I chose is the thoughts going on with Michelle and John. They are both lost in deep conversation they are having.

2. Hypothesizing. What is your hypothesis about the behavior?

Being lost in a deep conversation can affect a person's level of awareness towards his surroundings.

"If our level of awareness is related to the thoughts we have, then people who are preoccupied with thoughts such as being in a deep conversation are more likely to be less aware of their surrounding."

Michelle and John are preoccupied with the conversation and listening intently with one another. Since they are both in a serious situation, the level of their awareness about their environment decreases. They were unable to entertain outside information. However, Michelle noticed the light because she's only listening to John. But, John failed to notice the signal because he's the one talking.
