1. a) Ama’s mother uses the Authoritarian parental style. His dad who is laid back would rather use the Neglectful style which allows Ama to do what she wants. Yet Ama’s grandmother who feels children should be allowed to voice their ideas uses the Authoritative style when Ama visits her during holidays.

- What does this quote mean? “Whenever you observe a child, you are necessarily observing the child in an environment, not as an isolate.”arrow_forwardYou have been put in charge of developing a breed of domesticated dog that lives to be 40 years old on average. You will need to brainstorm for several minutes on how you could extend the life of dogs. You should refer to the example of the fruit flies from lecture.As part of this project, the breeders will need to put together an informational brochure to hand out to veterinarians and prospective owners of the dogs, which discusses: first, how dogs' age will be extended, then, some of the potential consequences of having a pet that lives for such a long time. The brochure will need to inform prospective owners that these dogs may live 40 or more years. It should point out that someone who is 30+ years old may have to plan on care for the pet if it were to outlive him or her. Also, there will be more lifetime costs associated with these dogs simply because they live so long. These dogs may be prone to diseases that are not seen in dogs with shorter life spans.

- Researchers are very interested in studying identical twins separated at birth and raised apart. So far, data suggests that such twins are more alike than researchers predicted; they frequently have similar personalities, mannerisms, habits, and interests. What general questions do you think researchers hope to answer by studying such twins? Why do identical twins make good subjects for this research? What abuses might occur if the studies are not evaluated critically and if the results are carelessly cited to support a social agenda?arrow_forwardMAKE A simple sketch and label characteristics Choose a human-related organism to study. As you consider strategies to enhance the social value of this organism, think of other desirable attributes that may be added to it. Imagination is a powerful tool, so let it go wild and imagine that you can transfer genes across other animals. For example: A gene from a firefly has been transferred into tobacco plants so that they may glow in the dark, as demonstrated by geneticists. Tobacco pests are less likely to attack at night because of this.arrow_forwardExplain Hardy-Weinberg Law in veterinary science.arrow_forward

Then draw a scatterplot indicating that the measure has good reliability and another one indicating the measure has poor reliability. C. Psychologists measure how long it takes a mouse to learn an eyeblink response. For 60 trials, they present a mouse with a distinctive blue light followed immediately by a puff of air. The 5th, 10th, 15th trials are test trials, in which they present the blue light alone(without the air puff). The mouse is said to have learned the eyeblink response if observers record that it blinked its eyes in response to test trials. The earlier in the 60 trials the mouse shows the eyeblink response, the faster it has learned the response.arrow_forwardList some challenges associated with studying the genetics of behavior, and explain how linkage analysis, microarrays, and genome-wide association studies address some of those challengesarrow_forward
