Answer:

Crystallized intelligence; fluid intelligence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Crystallized intelligence is one of the two classification of general intelligence and it is a kind of intelligence that is acquired or gained while learning such skills.

Jody in the question above has been taught how about the many names of state capitals by her tutor(s) and so she is taking a test of Crystallized intelligence.

Answer:

crystallized intelligence, fluid intelligence

Step-by-step explanation:

Jody is completing a test in which she has to name as many state capitals as she can in one minute; Alex is trying to complete analogies between pairs of abstract diagrams. Jody is taking a test of crystallized intelligence; Alex, a test of fluid intelligence.

Crystallized intelligence has to do with knowledge acquired over a period of time (throughout the individuals lifetime) through the process of both formal and informal learning, and through life experiences. Test on crystallized intelligence assesses the individuals knowledge through learning and experience such as states and capitals, names of different animals, simple arithmetic.

On the other fluid intelligence is not acquired knowledge, it is the ability of an individual to identify patterns in a previously unknown problem and solve them with the appropriate use of logic. This type of intelligence is not taught.
