Summary Introduction
Concept introduction: Concepts are the part of cognition. Cognition includes all the mental activities of human beings such as thinking, remembering, knowing, and communicating the information.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1TYS

For example, ball is a thing that includes all types of balls such as baseball, cricket ball, basketball, football, and many more. Grouping the environment where the human beings live in as concepts helps to provide much information to the brain with a limited cognitive effort. The concepts are formed with the help of prototypes.
