Aside from a documented but extremely rare form of brain injury or medical condition, humans gain or lose accents according to their environment.
People learn to speak the language of those around them from birth, and will pick up other languages or accents according to their social environment throughout their lives.
Some will retain their birth accent even after living since childhood in an area where the same language is spoken with a totally different accent; others will quickly lose that accent and adopt that of the area they live.
Even so, the person considered to have retained their original accent might still, on returning to their birthplace, be assumed to come from another area altogether.
Our instinct is to be as similar to those around us as possible; we are a communal animal. Therefore, we will make an effort, even if unconsciously, to speed up our adoption of the accent of the region we are living in.
Our adoption of the accent of a new place of residence, though, will be slowed if we are living or spending a lot of time with others from our original homeland.
Humans can lose heat through processes such as conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation. However, humans cannot gain heat through evaporation because it is a cooling process where heat is transferred from the body to the surrounding environment.
Bonding occurs when atoms gain,lose,or share electrons in their outer energy level.
Cats gain and lose weight for the same reasons that humans do. It's based on their caloric intake and their metabolism.
Lose
Positive. Metals 'lose' an electron during metallic bonding, this causes a sea of negative electrons throughout the metal molecules, leaving posotive metal ions
Neither lose nor gain.
gain
Atoms typically do not lose protons because that would change the identity of the element. Instead, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ions with a different charge. Protons are not generally lost by atoms in chemical reactions.
atoms often gain or lose electrons,which causes them to have a temporary negative or positive charge.
If you gain internal validity do you lose external validity
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
Most substances lose or gain energy when their temperature changes.
