Edna, age 71, has excellent pronunciation but poor spelling. She frequently forgets the word or phrase she is trying to use, telling others that it is on the tip of her tongue. These characteristics may be the result of:

A) decreased inhibition.
B) impaired vision.
C) inadequate control processes.
D) poor muscular coordination.

Explanation:

During late adulthood, control processes in an individual may tend to become weak as the process of neurotransmitter productions reduce and weaken in old age.This results in the delay of perceiving and processing sensations as neural transmission becomes weak and irregular.

Here, Edna who is aged 71 is in her late adulthood. Due to inadequate control of processes in her neurotransmitter, she may frequently forget the word or phrase she is trying to use.

Her control process of perceiving and processing sensations have become inadequate and irregular because of old age.

this question is confusing, could you reword it?

explanation:

elizabeth loftus conducted a study to observe the reliability of eyewitnesses during the 1970s. their baseline was to define how accurate are the recollections of eyewitnesses.

her studies do not support the use of eyewitness. loftus mentions in her work that we are not required to recall some experiences, meaning that rarely an individual eyewitness testimony is trustworthy. a good example is presented in her work, where all individuals watched a video and were than asked "about how fast were the cars going when they hit/smash? ". the testimonies changed based on the word she used to make the question (hit or smash), proving the fragility.
