         <description><![CDATA[<div>* Instinct is typically a fixed patterns of behavior in animals in response to certain stimuli. For example a spider spinning a web <br>* Learned behaviors is something that organisms develops as a result and can be preformed with any prior experience or training. For example teaching a dog how to roll over by giving a treat. <br>* Imprinting is a form of learning which a very young animal fixes its attention on the first object with which it has visual auditory or tactical thereafter follows that object. An example of imprinting is baby ducks following the momma duck. <br>* Classical conditioning is a learning process that occurs when two stimuli are repeatedly paired. For example when trying to train  animals with a bell or whistle. <br>*   Trail or error is a problem solving methods in which multiple attempts are made reach a solution. For example moving a large objet through a large opening and trying to figure out how to get through without getting stuck.<br>* Habituation is a decrease in response to after a stimulus repeated presentation. For example when organism cautiously repeats a certain behavior and eventually become used to that type of behavior.  </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>* Migration is when animals travel relatively short distances to find food or more favorable living or breeding conditions. For example is geese flying south for the winter.<br>* Excretion is the process by which animals rid themselves of waste products and of the nitrogenous by products of metabolism. For example the process of expelling waste matter, or the waste matter expelled by this process.<br>* Camouflage is an adaptation that helps an organism blend in with its surroundings.For example animals use coloring, texture and markings to blend into their environments.<br>* Unique movement with animals locomotion, in ethology, is any of a variety of methods that animals use to move from one place to another. For example a rabbit hopping and running to get away from whatever is about to attack it. </div>]]></description>
