What kind of processing is exemplified by the following scenario? esther’s mother offers her a new dish she’s been working on―a raisin-jalapeno quiche. esther’s body responds first: esther eyes the content of the skillet, and smells the mix of raisins, jalapenos, and eggs. her stomach churns and she looks away. feeling disgust and disappointment, she says "i’m not hungry."(a) bottom-up(b) sensory adaptation(c) top-down(d) vertical-horizontal

Answer is (A) bottom-up processing.

Explanation:

Bottom-up processing begins with an incoming stimulus (or sensory input) and then becomes a mental representation of an object. Usually, there's no preconceived idea of this object, so, one can say perception is shaped by the stimulus.

In this case, Esther's mother's new dish is a fresh-new stimulus for Esther, we can say she has no preconceived notion of it. However, it is very likely that the weird-looking-appearance of such culinary combination, along with the surely-not-so-pleasant smell of it, forced Esther into creating a mental representation (probably false) of its mother's new dish being simply disgusting.

answer: cannibalism, the capac raymi, capacocha, the eight day feast, the combing of the hair

explanation:

the incas have many rituals, cannibalism was always a very ritual thing, which was normally tied to sacrifices, warfare, death, and regeneration.

  the capac raymi was one of the most important ceremonies. it occurred around the summer solstice and was when they worshiped their sun god, also known as inti.

  the capacocho was another one of their most important ceremonies. it was when many children where selected to start their training, and these children where destined to become sacrificial blessings to their sun god, inti. being chosen for this ritual was a blessing.

  the eight day feast was a feast that lasted 8 days and, each day, the day began with a chanting at dawn. a follow up song at noon. which ended with complete silence at the end of the day. on this day, inca royalty was always dressed in silver and gold laced clothing.

  the combing of the hair was the most important ritual to young girls. this ritual was known as the coming of age ceremony, but only the most beautiful girls where chosen. in this ceremony, the girls chose their new name and where chosen as either brides, or princesses of rulers.
