Outline the main principles of behavioural learning theories and using examples discuss its potential therapeutic application. Humans are very complicated‚ but how do humans’ behaviours construct?

As a consequence‚ if we destroy the nature‚ in some extent‚ we will diminish ourselves. Nature is a mighty force. All species are the result of natural selection. Human is no exception.

In addition‚ zoo animals are exposed to diseases from humans. Many strains of influenza are fatal for animals that do not possess the antibodies to fight off. A handful of animals die in zoos‚ not only from disease‚ but also from poor living conditions. These conditions range from not nearly enough free space

started to develop more and more as time continued to go on. Almost 99% of threatened species are at risk of being extinct because of human activities alone.

The proof is in the last 5 centuries‚ an estimated half of the world’s languages have become extinct; but now language does not even need much longer period to become extinct; a century and it will be done.

The Role of Extinction in Evolution In contrast to the opposite phenomenon‚ speciation. This is surprising in view of the special importance Darwin attached to extinction‚ and because the number of species extinctions in the history of life is almost the same as the number of originations; present-day biodiversity is the result of a trivial surplus of originations‚ cumulated over millions of years. For an evolutionary biologist to ignore extinction is probably as foolhardy as for a demographer
