Respuesta :

Answer:

Functional fixedness.

Explanation:

This can be explained to be a cognitive bias or a mental disorder that a person see an object to be working in a particular way. That is why Bella in the scenario above did not see her trash bag for on trash disposal; she was reasonable enough to use it to save her current situation.
