Animal Behaviors by Anika Lorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9 Learned behaviors en-us 2017-04-29 06:52:55 UTC 2023-02-27 08:12:37 UTC hello@padlet.com Learned Behavior: anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169017239 Learned behavior is a response to the stimulus. It is shaped through experience, such as through the application of rewards, punishments or constant conditioning. They are usually more flexible than innate behavior and can be modified to suit any alterations in the organism's life. ]]> 2017-04-29 15:51:43 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169017239 Characteristics (examples): anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169017450 1. Prairie dogs typically sound an alarm call when threatened by a predator. At first, they will give this alarm call in response to hearing human steps, which indicate the presence of a large and potentially hungry animal.
2. When ducklings hatch, they imprint on the first adult animal they see, typically their mother. Once a duckling has imprinted on its mother, the sight of the mother acts as a cue to trigger a suite of survival-promoting behaviors, such as following the mother around and imitating her.
3.  In Pavlov's experiments, every time a dog was given food, another stimulus was provided alongside the unconditioned stimulus. Specifically, a bell was rung at the same time the dog received food. This ringing of the bell, paired with food, is an example of a conditioning stimulus—a new stimulus delivered in parallel with the unconditioned stimulus.
4. In one experiment, Köhler hung a banana in the chimpanzees' cage, too high for them to reach. Several boxes were also placed randomly on the floor. Faced with this dilemma, some of the chimps—after a few false starts and some frustration—stacked the boxes one on top of the other, climbed on top of them, and got the banana. This behavior suggests they could visualize the result of stacking the boxes before they actually carried out the action.
5. A child learning how to speak, write and think in school

In fact they become adaptations because that's exactly how living organisms adapt, through learning. Acquiring certain traits through learning helps us for survival and growth. Without this trait we wouldn't have been able to make revolutionary advances. In simpler terms, we would eventually die. ]]> 2017-04-29 16:06:20 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169017858 Source: anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018208 https://www.khanacademy.org/science/biology/behavioral-biology/animal-behavior/a/learned-behaviors]]> 2017-04-29 16:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018208 Imprinting in ducks anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018260 2017-04-29 16:15:19 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018260 Personal Statement: anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018663 I believe that there are a plethora of benefits due to Learned Behavior. It is the behavior that helps organisms survive and grow. Learning is what molds us into the individual that we are and that goes for any other animal as well. Developing a certain level of IQ is helpful in the real world; the possibilities would be limitless. For instance, it could make our lives a tad bit easier. We would be able to solve intellectual problems in order to sustain in life. Overall, It is in my philosophy that Learned Behaviors are indeed beneficial. ]]> 2017-04-29 16:25:42 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169018663 'A girl' reading to acquire more knowledge anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169019197 2017-04-29 16:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169019197 Symbolism of a Chimpanzee's intelligence anikalorenzo https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169019445 2017-04-29 16:39:46 UTC https://padlet.com/anikalorenzo/aq7wwvmzx2e9/wish/169019445
