How do elephants
respond to stimuli?
When animals receive a stimulus, or a nerve
signal, the signal is sent to their brain. The brain
interprets the signal. It then sends messages
telling the body how to respond. Elephants
receive information through
hearing, and touch.
Elephants use their trunks to make loud
calls to signal the other elephants of
danger in their environment. Usually, the
older elephants will form a circle around
the younger elephants to protect them.

on the ground with their
feet. Humans cannot hear
these sounds.
Most elephants form family
groups. The oldest elephant
leads other elephants to
find water. She uses the
direction of her body to
signal to other elephants
which way they should go.

environment?
How useful is primate behavior when it comes to understanding human behavior? How similar and different are we to them?

- adapted from What Is That Bird?by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service The first step in bird identification is learning to observe. Watch, listen, and record your observations in a journal using descriptive words and sketches, or photograph birds to capture a permanent, detailed image that you can study later. If you are just starting to watch birds, consider familiarizing yourself with the ones that you see daily. What are their general characteristics? Are they big or small, colorful or drab? Do they sit still or flit from branch to branch? Then, try comparing new birds that you see with the common birds that you already know. Is your new discovery the size of a sparrow, a robin, or a crow? Is its bill short or long, hooked or straight? Learning the basic form and structure, or morphology, of a bird will help you to make comparisons of birds. Concentrate on the shape and size of the beak, including the relative size of the upper and lower beak; length of the outer tail…arrow_forwardPart V-Kin Recognition Mechanism The kin selection hypothesis requires that individuals can recognize kin.
