We can use the reactivity series of metals to solve this.

The reactivity series of metals are (in descending order) :
Potassium, sodium, Lithium, calcium, Magnesium, aluminum, zinc, iron, tin, lead, copper, mercury, silver, platinum, gold.

Since Potassium is the most reactive, the reaction with water should produce extremely violent gas.

Sodium is the next most reactive, so it should produce violent gas.

And Lithium is the least reactive out of the 3 metals, so it should be strong gas formation.

In addition, the gas produced should be hydrogen, since the reaction of metals should water should produce "metal name" hydroxide + hydrogen.

Answer:

1. Reflex Conditioning

Explanation:

Conditioning is an aspect of learning where a stimulus works effectively in producing a response from an organism. This response becomes regular given the type of reinforcement that is administered to the organism. The reinforcement is usually a reward that is given to the organism.

This is what is observed in the woodpecker.  The stimulus or reinforcement which proves effective in producing a continuous response  from the woodpecker is the abundant supply of the birds favorite bugs. This reinforcement makes it possible for the woodpecker to become conditioned towards returning to the tree.
