Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Cichlids are a type of fish in which the male’s social environment affects the behavior and the cichlid can switch back and forth between two social roles. The social environment of male cichlid affects his behavior and the cichlid alters between dominant role and subordinate role.

- Imagine we identify a gene that is directlyresponsible for the effects of vasopressin on male mammals, includinghumans—we will call it trust1—that leads to the productionof a vasopressin receptor in the brain, which we will callTRUST1. There are different versions of trust1, all of which lead todifferent levels of the behavior associated with this neuropeptideon male behavior. Give some examples where it would be a goodidea to know a particular male’s genotype—that is, which of thetrust1 genes he has.

- A snake species that has migrated from the mainland to a small island eats banana slugs instead of lizards and mice, its usual diet. Which statement best explains this change in behavior? O The genotype that affects food choice is not isolated to a single phenotype. O Instinctual food choice by snakes is not related to genotypic flexibility. O Diet is exclusively controlled by snake genetics, not by nature. O Gene expression for mainland snakes is rigid and confined to one phenotype.arrow_forwardEnhanced Spatial Learning in Mice With an Autism Mutation Autism is a neurobiological disorder with symptoms that include impaired social interactions and stereotyped patterns of behavior. Around 10 percent of autistic people have an extraordinary skill or talent such as greatly enhanced memory. Mutations in neuroligin 3, an adhesion protein that connects brain cells to one another, have been associated with autism. One mutation changes amino acid 451 from arginine to cysteine. In 2007, Katsuhiko Tabuchi and his colleagues genetically modified mice to carry the same arginine-to-cysteine substitution in their neuroligin 3. Mice with the mutation had impaired social behavior. To test spatial learning ability, the mice were placed in a water maze: a deep pool of warm water in which a platform is submerged a few millimeters below the surface. The platform is not visible to swimming mice. Mice do not particularly enjoy swimming, so they locate a hidden platform as fast as they can. When tested again, they can remember its location by checking visual cues around the edge of the pool. How quickly they remember the platforms location is a measure of spatial learning ability (FIGURE 15.18). FIGURE 15.18 spatial learning ability in mica mutation in neuroligin 3 (R451C), compared with unmodified (wild-type) mica. 1. In the first, how many days did it take unmodified mice to learn to find the location of the hidden platform within 10 seconds?arrow_forwardA scientific study demonstrated that rat mothering behavior impacts the stress response in their pups. Rats that were born and grew up with attentive mothers showed low activation of stress-response genes later in life, while rats with inattentive mothers had high activation of stress-response genes in the same situation. An additional study that swapped the pups at birth (i.e., rats born to inattentive mothers grew up with attentive mothers and vice versa) showed the same positive effect of attentive mothering. How do genetics and/or epigenetics explain the results of this study?arrow_forward
- The pesticide DDT was widely used in the 1940s as a method of insect control. In the late 1950s the first DDT-resistant mosquitoes were discovered, and eventually DDT-resistant mosquitoes were found globally. When DDT is used now, the development of DDT resistance in mosquito populations occurs in months rather than years.Which of the following best explains the observations concerning DDT resistance in mosquitoes? * nd 2 school The proportion of DDT-resistant mosquitoes in a population remains constant due to the metabolic costs of DDT utilization DDT is a chemical signal that delays normal reproductive cycles in many mosquito populations. Natural selection favors DDT-resistant mosquitoes that are already present in a population when DDT exposure occurs. Competition for limited resources causes mosquitoes to migrate to geographical areas that have richer supplies of DDT. A population of 1.492 finches is introduced to a rainforest. Over the next year, the finches showa death rate of…arrow_forwardMutation: Tan Body Pgeneration Phenotypes: Normal female X Tan male Fi generation Phenotvoe Females Males Total Ratio Normal Tan F, XF, Phenotypes: Normal female X Normal male F2 generation Phenotvoe Females Males Total Ratio Normal 8. 4.
