Explanation / Answer

Hi there!

Answer to question 6 is as follows.

Negative reinforcement occurs when, you do something that removes an unpleasant stimulus (option A)

Let me explain why option A is the correct answer.

When an aversive stimulus (an unpleasant stimulus, usually a negative consequence) is removed after exhiiting a particular behavior, it increases the chances for the very same behavior to be exhibited again. This is done as negative reinforcement to correct behavioral patterns.
