1. When Marlin gets into a dire and panic-inducing situation by losing his son, his brain remembers the mask of the diver that took his son. Marlin later on recognizes the same mask and associates it with him losing his son, showing how his brain was able to create that memory of the mask because of the strong emotions he felt and the experience he went through when he lost his son. This is a strong example of the neuroscience perspective.2. Bruce wanting to become friends with fish can be explained through the behavioral perspective. It is not a predisposed, but rather learned behavior for sharks to want to become friends with fish and not eat them, since naturally fish are prey for sharks.

Dory acts sad when she is trying to help Marlin follow the boat but keeps forgetting she is trying to help him, showing that Dory has probably tried to help someone in the past but also kept forgetting and felt sad about it, leading to her always acting sad in those similar scenarios.6. Dory asks for help more often and is more out-going than Marlin is, even though they are from the same area of the ocean, meaning that they behave differently because of their cultures. This is a good example of the socio-cultural perspective.7. When the three sharks are having their meeting, the sharks constantly positively support each other, even when one of them admits to eating a fish. These sharks are using active listening and unconditional positive regard with each other, which is an example of and a part of the humanistic
