1. With "preprogrammed" innate behaviors, a sign stimulusis followed bya. a period of habituationb. a fixed-action responsec. remembrance and adjustment (learning)d. integrated cognitive mapping2. An ethologist is studying what factors contribute tomass spawning by coral. The ethologist is considering seatemperature, moon phases, and seasonal changes in oceancurrents. This kind of study is particularly interested in whataspect of animal behavior?a. Ultimate causationb. Proximate causationc. Associative learningd. Operant conditioning3. To a behavior ecologist, the term "taxis" refers to what?a. Random movements of animals; that is, movement notinduced by stimulib. The instinctive tendency of social animals to self-selectinto a hierarchy ("pecking order")c. Behavior modifications specific to circadian rhythmsd. Purposeful movement of an animal either toward oraway from a stimulus4. Each of the following are directly involved or associatedwith animal migration (with certain animals) except for:a. detecting Earth's magnetic field.b. detecting changes in photoperiod.c. using starlight to navigate.d. using ultraviolet light receptors in the skin.5. When a honeybee returns to the hive to communicateabout a new food source it has found far away, it performsa "waggle dance." During the waggle dance, the number ofabdominal waggles in a straight-run indicatesa. the distance to the foodb. the direction (angle) of the food relative to the sun'sposition to the hivec. the type of food it is (nectar versus pollen)d. the quantity of food (such as one plant versus an entiremeadow)6. Many animals have the ability to release volatilechemicals in trace amounts that can affect the behavior ofother animals (usually of the same species). This kind ofchemical signal is known as aa. phellodermb. photopsinc. pheromone

A Brown-headed cowbird lays her eggs in the nest of a Kirtland's warbler who then raises the young cowbirds as if they were her own. 3.The fungus Ophiocordyceps unilateralis infects ants and alters the ant’s behavior. The infected ant leaves its colony and attaches itself to the underside of a leaf and remains there until the fungus’ life cycle is completed. At this point, a fruiting body emerges from the ant’s head, killing the ant, and the fungal spores are released into the environment. 4.
