Prey or predation is a biological interaction where a predator (an organism, often an animal) kills and eats its prey (another organism).
Like a mouse getting caught and eaten by a bird of prey (Eagles, hawks, etc.)
When a person has linked a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus so that now the neutral stimulus triggers the conditioned response, <u>acquisition</u> has occurred.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A trigger that in the beginning causes no specific answer other than attention concentration is understood as "a neutral stimulus". In operant conditioning the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus when used in combined way with an unconditioned stimulus.
Now let us say, for instance, you need to take your child to the pediatrician for a shot. The pediatrist hits a buzzer before the shot to call her nurse to come in and help her conduct the vaccine. Here the buzzer's noise is the neutral stimulus, as it generates no reaction from the infant, but the child knows that.
No the Calvin cycle is a light independent reaction that produces energy
Biology is the natural science that studies life and living organisms, including their physical structure, chemical processes, molecular interactions, physiological mechanisms, development and evolution.
