Biological constraints are ________ biological tendencies that predispose animals' behavior and learning.
A) classically conditioned
B) extrinsically motivated
C) prosocial
D) evolved

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biological constraints refer to genetically determined factors that limit an animal's ability to learn new behaviors or respond to certain stimuli. These factors are evolved over time and are not a result of conditioning or extrinsic motivation. Therefore, the most appropriate answer is D - evolved. Choice A (classically conditioned) and choice B (extrinsically motivated) are incorrect because they do not accurately describe biological constraints, and choice C (prosocial) is also incorrect because it refers to social behavior, which is not related to biological constraints.
