    The correct answers are the second (Negative reinforcement: Ella's parents confiscate her car keys for breaking curfew) and the third (Positive punishment: Laurel's mother yells at her when she takes $20 from her purse.)

    Explanation:

    The second one poses a situation in which a specific, undesired behaviour (Ella's breaking of the curfew) is answered by removing a stimulus (her car.) The overall objective is to increase the possibilities of a certain behaviour to happen in the future (Ella's metting of the curfew.)

    In the case of the third example, the undesired behaviour of Laurel is answered by an undesired, adversive consequence. Her mother's yelling at her has the objective of stopping Laurel's undesired behaviour from happening in the future.
