Question 1

What is an example of observational learning?&#10;A) &#8203;A baby garter snake captures and eats a slug.&#10;B) &#8203;A chick's gaping mouth induces a feeding response in a parent bird.&#10;C) &#8203;A European cuckoo hatchling pushes the host bird's egg out of the nest.&#10;D) &#8203;A male fruit fly waves his wings at a female fruit fly during courtship.&#10;E) &#8203;A marmoset monkey mimicking another marmoset in successfully opening a container.

Accepted Answer

Observational learning involves an individual learning a behavior or skill by watching and imitating another individual. In this case, the marmoset monkey is learning how to open a container by watching and mimicking another marmoset, which qualifies as observational learning. The other options do not involve observational learning, as they either involve innate behaviors (e.g. snake capturing prey, chick gaping for food, cuckoo pushing eggs out of the nest) or learned behaviors that are not necessarily acquired through observation (e.g. male fruit fly courtship behavior).

Question 2

Which of the following implies movement with regard for direction?&#10;A) &#8203;taxis only&#10;B) &#8203;kinesis only&#10;C) &#8203;migration only&#10;D) &#8203;taxis and migration only&#10;E) &#8203;taxis, migration, and kinesis

Accepted Answer

Taxis and migration both involve movement with regard for direction. Taxis is a directed movement towards or away from a stimulus, while migration is a seasonal or long-distance movement to a specific destination. Kinesis, on the other hand, is a non-directional movement response to stimuli.

Question 3

According to the above table, what foraging characteristic would benefit an animal most in a stable ecology?&#10;A) &#8203;A baby garter snake, when it captures and eats a slug&#10;B) &#8203;A sitter, because it would have more trouble adapting to a changing environment&#10;C) &#8203;A rover, because it has the ability to adapt quickly&#10;D) &#8203;Both the sitter and the rover are equally adept in a stable ecosystem.&#10;E) &#8203;Both the snake and the rover are equally adept in a stable ecosystem.

Accepted Answer

In a stable ecology, a sitter would benefit most because it doesn't need to adapt to changes and can efficiently exploit consistent resources.

Question 4

&#10;The above figure of a young cuckoo shoving its foster parents' egg out of the nest best demonstrates _____.&#10;A) &#8203;imprinting behavior&#10;B) &#8203;instinctive behavior&#10;C) &#8203;classical conditioning&#10;D) &#8203;learned behavior&#10;E) &#8203;operant conditioning

Accepted Answer

The behavior displayed by the young cuckoo is an example of instinctive behavior, which is innate and programmed within the animal's genetics. In this case, the cuckoo instinctively knows to remove the eggs of its foster parents to make room for its own survival. Imprinting behavior, classical conditioning, learned behavior, and operant conditioning do not fully explain this particular behavior.

Question 5

Imprinting is a form of ____.&#10;A) &#8203;innate response&#10;B) &#8203;static pattern&#10;C) &#8203;instinctive behavior&#10;D) &#8203;unlearned behavior&#10;E) &#8203;passive behavior

Accepted Answer

Imprinting is a form of instinctive behavior, as it is an innate process that occurs at a specific life stage and is not learned through experience.

Question 6

Habituation can best be described as a form of _____.&#10;A) &#8203;fixed action&#10;B) &#8203;learned behavior&#10;C) &#8203;stereotyping&#10;D) &#8203;instinctual response&#10;E) &#8203;observational learning

Accepted Answer

Habituation is a type of learned behavior, where an organism becomes less responsive to a repeated stimulus. It is not a fixed action, stereotyping, instinctual response, or observational learning.

Question 7

Parasitized caterpillars eating more alkaloid-rich food in order to poison their parasites is an example of _____.&#10;A) &#8203;behavioral plasticity&#10;B) &#8203;social plasticity&#10;C) &#8203;epigenetics&#10;D) &#8203;learned behavior&#10;E) &#8203;mirroring

Accepted Answer

The behavior of the caterpillars changing their food preference to increase their defenses against parasites is an example of behavioral plasticity - the ability of an organism to change their behavior in response to changes in their environment.

Question 8

A rat that learns not to approach a certain part of a cage because it has received a shock there exhibiting ____.&#10;A) &#8203;operant conditioning&#10;B) &#8203;shock therapy&#10;C) &#8203;desensitization&#10;D) &#8203;mirroring&#10;E) &#8203;observational learning

Accepted Answer

The rat is exhibiting operant conditioning because it is learning to associate a certain behavior (approaching a certain part of the cage) with a consequence (receiving a shock), and is modifying its behavior accordingly.

Question 9

The European cuckoo's behavior as a &#34;brood parasite&#34; represents what type of behavior?&#10;A) &#8203;a response that is not a behavior&#10;B) &#8203;instinctive behavior&#10;C) &#8203;imprinting behavior&#10;D) &#8203;learned behavior&#10;E) &#8203;a time-dependent form of learning

Accepted Answer

Instinctive behavior is an innate behavior that is genetically determined and does not require learning or experience. The European cuckoo's behavior of laying eggs in other bird species' nests and leaving the eggs to be raised by the foster parents is an instinctive behavior.
