- In an investigation of fruit fly behavior, an enclosed choice chamber was used to test whether the spatial distribution of flies is affected by the presence of a substance placed at one end of the chamber. To test the flies’ preference for different substances, 50 flies were introduced into the choice chamber. A piece of ripe banana was placed at the end of the chamber on side A and a piece of unripe banana was placed at the end of the chamber on side B (Figure 1). The positions of the flies were observed and recorded at the start of the experiment and after 10 minutes (Table 1).arrow_forwardlearned and innate behavior a)Is fear a learned or innate behavior? b) What is the major difference between these two behaviors? c)Give one example of a learned behavior and one of innate behaviorarrow_forwardImagine what it would be like if your memory only a 30-second maximum capacity; that is, if, in a half-minute or less, you forgot everything you just experienced, including information received from your environment and its accompanying feelings. What would be your greatest challenges in life? What about the positives? How would adaptive living play a role in your life? Please include peer reviewed references.arrow_forward

Some but not all specialized interactions are obligate. All specialized interactions are also obligate. "Specialized" and "obligate" mean the same thing.

- What is the prototype approach? What experiments did Rosch do thatdemonstrated connections between prototypicality and behavior?arrow_forwardFor your summer research project, you decide to repeat Lillian Tuttle’s (2017) experiment testing the effect of lionfish on other fish that are cleaners and clients. You do this new experiment at a new location (Bonaire), but use basically the same experimental approach and BACI design as Tuttle. a) You do not separate resident and transient clients (as Tuttle did), and below is a graph of your results showing the effect of the treatment on the total density of client fish in the community. Please explain your result. Imagine that you are planning to publish your experiment and that your answer to this question will be part of the “Results” section of your paper. Please do not worry about hypothetical statistical tests; just assume that the obvious patterns displayed in the graph can be interpreted at face value.arrow_forwardThe digger bee’s “postcopulatory courtship” consists of elaborate tactile stimulation that the male provides his partner after she has accepted his sperm.

- DeCasper and Fifer (1980) provided evidence that babies recognize their mothers' voices shortly after birth. Using a nonnutritive nipple attached to a sensing apparatus, DeCasper and Fifer showed that newborns would suck more to hear a tape of their mother's voice compared to a tape of a stranger's voice. Because they were newborns, they must have become familiar with the mother's voice while still in the womb. In a follow-up study, DeCasper and Spence had 16 pregnant mothers read a three minute long passage from the Dr. Seuss book The Cat in the Hat to their fetuses twice a day for the last 6.5 weeks of pregnancy. The mothers were also recorded reading three minute excerpts from two other stories. By the time the babies were born, the researchers calculated, they had heard The Cat in the Hat for about 5 hours. DeCasper and Spence used their sucking test again. The babies sucked more to hear The Cat in the Hat, regardless of whether it was in their mother's voice or another woman's…arrow_forwardWhat role does nature play on learning? For example, why are many humans afraid of snakes or spiders? Describe B.F, Skinner's theory of reinforcement and punishment. How do these two principles influence learning? How do advertisers use the principles of pleasure and pain to get people to buy their products? What did the experiment with felt-tipped markers and school age children illustrate How does this make you feel about external rewards like grades or prizes for doing something? Why do we remember emotional memories better than other memories? What is a memory palace? What are the different types of memories and where are they stored in the brain?arrow_forwardCooperative behaviour is widely found among animals. Provide the following: 1) an example of cooperative behaviour between genetically related individuals 2) an example of cooperative behaviour between unrelated individuals. For each of the examples, also describe the mechanism(s) involved in maintaining cooperative behaviours during their interactions.arrow_forward
