- Estrogen in birds stimulates aggression by acting on neurons. which of these animals will have the highest aggression? An animal with high estrogen levels and no estrogen receptors in neurons. An animal with low estrogen levels and low receptors in neurons. an animal with no estrogen and high receptors in neurons.arrow_forwardWhat is known about this behavior and neutral mechanisms of this behavior? Include details and experiments performed to demonstrate these aspects.arrow_forwardDraw a bar graph showing territorial aggression in mice is dependent on estradiol, and another showing what it would the results would look like if territorial aggression was independent of estradiol.arrow_forward
- Cooperative behaviour is widely found among animals. Provide the following: 1) an example of cooperative behaviour between genetically related individuals 2) an example of cooperative behaviour between unrelated individuals. For each of the examples, also describe the mechanism(s) involved in maintaining cooperative behaviours during their interactions.arrow_forwardHamilton's Rule describes the relationship between cost and relationship in the evolution of altruistic behavior. Which of the following do not support Hamilton's rule: In colonies of Naked Mole Rates, only one female is reproductive. Cattle egrets sometimes kill their siblings. Wood mouse sperm will sacrifice themselves to assist a "sibling" sperm to fertilize an egg. O A Prairie Dog trills in response to an oncoming predator and is more likely to be eaten because it exhibits this behavior.arrow_forwardUsing the attached table that shows the total score for submissive and dominant behaviors of the territorial male during each. Larger number shows more aggression in the resident individual. Low Aggressive behaviors (worth 1), medium aggressive behaviors (worth 2) and the most aggressive behaviors(worth 3). Based on the table:Did octopamine injected male residencts(crayfish) seem to be more or less aggressive by displaying dominance behaviors towards intruder males compared to their initial encounter with a male intruder based on theT test results?arrow_forward
- Explain what proximate and ultimate causation of behaviors are and give an example. What is a FAP and sign stimuli- use an example.arrow_forwardWhat type of behavior is genetically programmed? Multiple choice question. Innervated Innate Individual Instantaneousarrow_forwardDescribe and give an example of a dominance hierarchy. What role does it play in social behavior? Give a human parallel, and describe its role in human society. Are the two roles similar? Why or why not? Repeat this exercise for territorial behavior in humans and in another animal.arrow_forward
- Write a essay in the form of an introduction to the research area of the topic 'Neuroscience of social behaviour'. write an overview of 4 research articles explaining the contribution of these articles to research in the topic area. the 4 research articles are: orebrain control of behaviorally-driven social orienting in zebrafish by Sarah J.

If the subordinate male DOES NOT inherit the dominant male's territory upon its death, how would you explain this cooperative behavior?
