A pupil changes how she holds a microscope slide to suit a thick specimen. Which psychomotor level is this?
AMechanism
BPerception
CAdaptation
DOrigination
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Adaptation
1. She already has the skill and modifies it to a new circumstance.
2. Modifying movements to fit specific circumstances is adaptation.
3. Origination would mean inventing a wholly new movement pattern, which is not happening here.
