Statement This method requires that the experimenter make crosses between different strains to produce a mapping population. QTL GWA Both This method can scan the entire genome to find QTL for a trait. This method can often identify the specific genes that represent the QTL. This method may sample a large number of individuals from a random-mating population that has variation for the trait being studied. This method typically tests two alleles that differ between the two parents of the mapping population.

Animal Behavior

Animal behavior can be defined as all the things that animals do. In response to a stimulus, an animal performs a certain fixed action pattern, or FAP, of behavior. This response occurs to make the animal more adaptable to change. So, behavior is generally a stimulus-oriented response. A behavior is an expression of the capabilities of the nervous system. A stimulus is determined by the environment, while the nervous system determines a response.
