Answer:
fixed action pattern, key stimulus; key stimulus, fixed action pattern
Explanation:
- An innate behavior which specific to a species and is highly stereotyped is termed as a fixed action pattern.
- This behavior occurs due to a neuronal network that is hard-wired in the species and the response is said to be generated following a key stimulus.
- A key stimulus is the one that generates a fixed action pattern and this is also called a releaser.
- A key stimulus can be in the form of shape, sound, color, or a combination of these.
- In this case, the red spot is a stimulus for the chicks which causes them to peck at their parent's bill, and hence, the red spot is a key stimulus, and pecking of the chicks is a fixed action pattern.
- The parents regurgitate the food only when the chicks peck at their bills, so pecking is a key stimulus for the parents which causes them to regurgitate the food which is a fixed action pattern.
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "B. birds have beaks adapted to break open hard shells." The adaptation would most likely be found in organisms living in the rainforest is that <span>birds have beaks adapted to break open hard shells</span>
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
This question is incomplete but the completed question can be seen in the document attached.
There are three main subatomic particles namely electrons, protons and neutrons. However, the question only discusses two of them; electrons (negatively charged) and protons (positively charged).
A. Found in all matter
Answer: They are <u>both</u> found in all matter since all matter are made up of atoms and all atoms have both protons and electrons (and even neutrons).
B. Negative charge
Answer: The subatomic particle with negative charge (as discovered by R.A Millikan) is the <u>electron</u>
C. Exists in the nucleus
The subatomic particles found in the nucleus are the <u>protons</u> and neutrons.
D. Attract opposite charges
They <u>both</u> (protons and electrons) attract opposite charges because they are of opposite charges and generally unlike charges attract.
E. Moves at extreme speed
Of the two subatomic particles mentioned, <u>electrons</u> move faster than protons because of there lighter mass when compared to the protons. However, the fastest subatomic particle is the neutrino.
F. Bound by strong force
The <u>protons</u> are bound by strong nuclear force which binds them to the nucleus of the atom.
Answer:
Joint - a joint is where two bones articulate
In this case, the femur and tibia form a joint.
