Psychologists prefer negative reinforcement to punishment as a way to shape?
Negative reinforcement encourages behaviors to continue with the incentive of taking away something bad. Punishment encourages bad behaviors to stop through fear of consequence. Psychologists recommend using negative reinforcement over punishment because it encourages desirable behaviors instead of removing undesirable behaviors without putting a desirable alternative in its place, and because it is based on a positive hope for reward, rather than fear of consequence.

What is gram positive strain?
Gram-positive bacterium are those that are stained dark blue or violet by Gram Staining. This is in contrast to Gram-Negative Bacterium, which cannot retain the crystal violet stain, instead taking up the counter-stain and appearing red or pink. Gram-positive organisms are able to retain the crystal violet stain because of the high amount of peptidoglycan in the cell wall. Gram-positive cell walls typically lack the outer membrane found in Gram-negative bacteria.

Why does a negative plus a negative equal a negative?
A negative plus a negative equals a negative because the operation you're doing is equivalent to subtraction. If you wrote down a sum "negative 3 plus negative 7" it would look like this: -3+-7 which is the same as -3-7 Whenever you add a negative number you are actually taking more away, and this is why a negative plus a negative equals a negative - You start with a negative number, and are taking even more away, so you will only ever end up with a negative number.
