1. Which phrase best describes an innate behavior? usually performed incorrectly for the first time often occurs where mistakes are not costly typically instinctive and relatively inflexible generally learned, flexible, and cumulative 2. Cognition is a form of behavior that involves random responses that lead to either reward or punishment. is performed correctly without any previous experience. is characterized by decreased responsiveness to unimportant stimuli. involves applying something already learned to a new situation. 3. Organisms can communicate in many ways. Bees can explain where flowers are by? Language Pheromones Dancing Singing 4. Biological magnification means? Producers would be most negatively effected. Apex predators would be most negatively effected. Energy goes one way through an ecosystem. Organisms get larger as you move up the food chain.

How has the approach to studying animal behavior changed over the past century? How has this improved our understanding of animal behavior?
Josee P.
Which sequence represents the correct ranking, from smallest (least encompassing) to largest (most encompassing)? Organism - community - population - ecosystem. In the example of innate behavior, is it: A - when an organism travels through a maze to find food? B - when an individual alerts others despite danger to itself? C - when a bird raised by humans makes the same calls as those raised in the wild? D - when male langur monkeys kill a non-related infant in their territory?
Mystique T.
Some animal behaviors can be modified by experience. Which of the following accurately predicts how an experiential factor is likely to affect an animal’s behavior? a. A species of salmon will migrate up the same river regardless of increases in predators that visit these waterways from one year to the next. b. Female elk that had difficult deliveries of calves will continue to mate with males in succeeding mating seasons. c. Bears that receive food from humans are later more likely to break into human habitations than bears that are not approached by humans. d. A bird raised from an egg isolated in a lab environment will give the same alarm call as birds of the same species raised in the wild.
