Answer: The drive theory of motivation.

Explanation:

The drive threory of motivation is based on the principle that organisms have certain psycological or physiological needs (in this case, hunger). When those needs are not satisfied, a tension in the organism is produced, and with it a drive to seek the satisfaction of that need.

Because the substance the rat recieves is nonnutritive (it doesn't reduce the rat's hunger), we can clearly see that the rat isn't performing the response because of this drive, seeking for the satisfaction of its hunger, but is motivated by another feeling. Therefore, this observation is problematic for the drive theory of motivation.

Which type of anatomic structure are bird wings and butterfly wings when compared to each other?
Anna11 [10]

When compared to each other, bird wings and butterfly wings can be described as ANALOGOUS STRUCTURES,

Analogous structures are those body structures in animals, which are used to perform similar functions but which have different evolutionary history. They are also called convergent structures. These structures are formed as a result of the need for the animals to adapt to similar environmental conditions. For instance, both bird and butterfly use their wings for flying.
