Features of the experiment that inadvertently lead participants to respond in a particular manner is a definition of
Delvig [45]

Answer:

It is a definition of demand characteristics.

Explanation:

The term demand characteristics originated in Martin Orne's work as the test group understood what was the investigation and acted consequently. Thus, the way an experiment is built may lead participants to answer unconsciously to what they believe the researcher wants. When the participants form a notion of where the experiment is heading, they probably behave accordingly. One way to avoid the effects of demand characteristics on research is to use deception and guide participant to act more naturally as they cannot guess the purpose of the experiment.

LiRa [457]

<u>Full question:</u>

Thousands of years ago, giraffes with short necks were common within giraffe populations. Nearly all giraffe populations today have long necks. This difference could be due to

giraffes stretching their necks to keep their heads out of reach of predators

giraffes stretching their necks so they could reach food higher in the trees

a mutation in genetic material controlling neck size occurring in some skin cells of a giraffe

a mutation in genetic material controlling neck size occurring in the reproductive cells of a giraffe

<u>Answer:</u>

This difference could be due to:a mutation in genetic material controlling neck size occurring in the reproductive cells of a giraffe

<u>Explanation:</u>

The primary short-necked forms contained large, mutable populations. Following the selection pressure of desiccations and leaf deficiencies, those changes with longer necks and forelegs sustained and repeated preferentially. In this procedure, throughout generations, these large mammals have occurred, being acclimated to their unique environment .

Lamarckian theory illustrated giraffe neck metamorphosis by showing that consistent stretching gradually extended their necks, and that they then moved on these propitious longer necks to their offspring. Environment and other variations created the extirpation of the eurasian giraffids, but various African species endured.
