Question
Chapter 36, Problem 6WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The facts that are revealed about the fox by the disposition of behavior that is influenced either by the environment or by the genes and the type of disposition that one would predict for a baby fox captured from the wild.
Concept introduction:
There are certain factors that control and influence the behavior of an organism. These factors are governed by factors like the surrounding in which an organism lives and by the genes of that organism. Certain other factors that are related to the governance of traits are the internal factors stress, anxiety, hunger and some others.

How much of our behavior is determined by our genes versus the environment? Provide two examples of why or why not.What do you think are the pros and cons for an individual if they believe genes determine their behaviors? What are the pros and cons for individuals if they believe nature determines their behaviors? What do you think are the implications for society if we put a lot of weight on nature or nurture?
Why imprinting is considered as a learned behavior and not an innate behavior?
Imagine that you’re studying a species of bird. Let’s say the House Sparrow. You are interested in whether the species exhibits personality and whether there is selection on personality traits. Design an observational and experimental study to determine whether House Sparrows have a personality and, separately, design a study that would test the idea that there is currently selection on this trait(s)

- What is the concerted model for allosteric behavior?arrow_forwardYou are a wildlife biologist researching black rhinos. During your time in Africa, you have observed two particular traits that allow some black rhinos to be better adapted to their environment. The first trait is an extra-long prehensile lip that enables the rhino to have more efficient browsing capabilities than rhinos with the usual size prehensile lip. Second, some of the rhinos in the study have extra-large ears that allow them to hear a potential predator earlier than rhinos with normal size ears. If you could breed black rhinos that have both of these good traits (an extra-long prehensile lip (P) and bigger ears (E), it wouldincrease their chance for survival in the wild. You have chosen the following two rhinos to enter into a breeding program for the two desired phenotypic traits. It has been determined (based on your previous research) that both the desired traits are homozygous recessive. Parent 1: Heterozygous dominant for prehensile lip trait. Heterozygous for the longer…arrow_forwardYou were given two examples of learning in class. One related to wasps using landmarks to find nesting sites. The other related to mate choice in birds where the females were exposed to potential mates with artificial crests on their heads. What is the difference in the learning between the two studies? Group of answer choices the wasp study looked at the relatedness among individuals doing the learning both studies demonstrated that the behavior was purely genetic with no learning involved the bird study studied learning and development, permanent changes in behavior as a result of juvenile experience the wasp study studied learning and development, permanent changes in behavior as a result of juvenile experiencearrow_forward
- Perfect pitch is the ability to identify a note when it is sounded. In a study of this behavior, perfect pitch was found to predominate in females (24 out of 35 in one group). In one group of seven families, individuals in each family had perfect pitch. In two of those families, the affected individuals included a parent and a child. In another group of three families, three or more members (up to five) of each had perfect pitch, and in all three families, two generations were involved. Given this information, what, if any, conclusions can you draw about whether this behavioral trait might be genetic? How would you test your conclusion? What further evidence would be needed to confirm your conclusion?arrow_forwardSexual selection tends to cause bigger size,more elaborate weaponry, or brighter colors in males.
