Document Summary
Can be inherited through genes *innate- natural selection learned. Behavioral ecology = study of behavior that explain how specific behaviors increase fitness. Automatic 2 nerve = afferent/efferent response to stimulus controlled at spinal cord: complex automatic response to significant stimulus *controlled at brains stem/even cerebrum. Ex= startle response = controlled by reticular activating system. Ex= in mammals care for offspring by female parents. * initiated by specific sign stimuli = released between members of same species & completed even if. Original intent of behavior cannot be fulfilled: goose methodically rolling egg, male stickleback fish, swimming actions. Innate program for acquiring specific behavior only if appropriate stimulus experienced during critical. Defending territory against any object w/ red underside. Of fish/flying actions of locusts: grey goose goslings accepting any moving object as mother during 1st day of life, salmon hatch in freshwater. Migrate to ocean to feed & return to birthplace to breed based on. Occurs when animal recognizes/learn that events connecte.
