Multiple choice
Fewer than 3% of animals engage in direct care of their offspring. When might the benefits of parental care outweigh the costs?
Choose the correct option and Explain why you choose that answer.
a) All of the options.
b) Species that feed on resources with high foraging effort (e.g., smaller insect prey versus larger insect prey).
c) Species with highly immature young, for instance those with large brains that have long learning periods.
d) Species with limited breeding opportunities.
Distinguish between associative learning, classical condittioning, and operant conditioning.

Pls & thank you 1. a) Is it possible that the larger brain size of the gorilla is just a correlated response to selection for a larger body size in the gorilla (compared to the body size of the chimpanzee)? Does the information in the graph support or falsify this claim? b) Fossil evidence shows that it was not until the evolution of Homo erectus that the brain size in hominins really began to increase relative to body size. The range in brain size of early Homo erectus to late Homo erectus increased from 700 cc to 1000 cc (similar to the gram scale on the y-axis). This includes most of the 3x increase of brain size from Australopithecus to Homo sapiens. But Homo erectus was about the height of modern humans. Does the graph show that brain size in H. erectus increased faster than body size even though H. erectus was taller than Australopithecus?

- Log observations on the feeding behavior of the cockroach in Ta ble 1. Note of the sensory input &motor output corresponding with the behavior of feeding. Sensory input is anything perceived by the senses; the stimuli perceived by the organism like olfactory, visual, mechanoreception, gustatory, & hearing. Motor output results after the nervous system integrates & processes the sensory input. It synthesizes sensory input to compute an appropriate motor response like leg extension etc.arrow_forwardWhere is the below quote from?
