Document Summary

Behaviors are influenced by genetics and environment (nature and nurture) Grey legged goose is an example of an animal that has a fap. Any round object that is found by the female goose is pulled under her body in order to incubate it. Conducted to completion once activated by a sensory cue. Goose sees egg outside nest and retrieves it. Goose completes the same sequence of motions even when egg is removed. Even if the egg is removed, the goose will continue to do the motion, it is because it is an evolutionary adaptation. If there a larger stimulus put in there is a more rigorous movement.
