Chapter 36, Problem 1PIT

(a)

Summary Introduction

To classify:

The nine behaviors listed in Pull It Together and to connect the map as triggered by the animals of same species or a different species.

Concept introduction:

There are two facts that when combined together contributes to the understanding of animal behavior. They are innate abilities and learnings from the life. These two factors are in turn, controlled by the genes and experiences of life. Genes are the major reason for the control of almost all the activities of life, but they are governed by the experiences from life.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
1. With "preprogrammed" innate behaviors, a sign stimulus is followed by a. a period of habituation b. a fixed-action response c. remembrance and adjustment (learning) d. integrated cognitive mapping 2. An ethologist is studying what factors contribute to mass spawning by coral. The ethologist is considering sea temperature, moon phases, and seasonal changes in ocean currents. This kind of study is particularly interested in what aspect of animal behavior? a. Ultimate causation b. Proximate causation c. Associative learning d. Operant conditioning 3. To a behavior ecologist, the term "taxis" refers to what? a. Random movements of animals; that is, movement not induced by stimuli b. The instinctive tendency of social animals to self-select into a hierarchy ("pecking order") c. Behavior modifications specific to circadian rhythms d. Purposeful movement of an animal either toward or away from a stimulus 4. Each of the following are directly involved or associated with animal migration…
Female parasitoid wasps search for insect hosts in which to lay eggs, and they can often discriminate among individual hosts that are more or less suitable for their offspring. Behavioral ecologists have asked whether or not the wasps’ willingness to lay eggs in less suitable hosts varies with the female’s age. On the basis of life history theory, what pattern of change would you predict? Does life history theory make any other predictions about animal behavior?
Animals have evolved a range of strategies to successfully respond to threats and challenges. One of these strategies is the ability to learn. As we discussed, not every animal can learn and there are clear costs and benefits to this strategy. Suggest one benefit of the ability to learn and one potential cost. Briefly explain each. (1-2 sentences for each)  Since learning is not universal, under which circumstances would it be most likely be a successful strategy? We discussed a framework that examines the influence of predictability on the success of learning ability. Describe this framework. Make sure you discuss all the available conditions and clearly state under which we would expect learning to be successful and where we would not expect it to be successful.  What would be an alternative strategy to regulate behaviour when learning is not suitable? Briefly explain your choice. (2-3 sentences)
