Document Summary
Evolution-genetic change in a species over time, darwin 1859, natural selection. Defense from predation: plants, thorns, spines, prickles, chemical defenses (mustard oils-cabbage butter y caterpillars, animals, chemicals (monarch butter ies-milkweed) bees, wasps, scorpions, spiders, jelly sh (box), snakes, lizards, poison dart frogs, defensive coloration: warning coloration; aposematic coloration; cryptic coloration. Mimicry: batesian mimicry, butter ies and moths, mullerian mimicry, stinging wasps, self mimicry, eyespots. Remora on sharks: mutualism: bene cial to both species. Nature: ethology: study of animal behavior in the wild, innate: instinctive behaviors, studies. Nurture: learning: altered behavior patterns as result of previous experiences, non-associative learning: does not require animal to form an association between two stimuli. Habituation-learning not to respond to a repeated stimulus: associative learning: change in behavior that involves as association between two stimuli-modi ed or conditioned through association. Operant conditioning-learns to associate behavior response with reward or punishment (skinner box)
