Question

 




 

Type of inherited behavior

          1. Orientation
          2. Reflex
          3. Chain of reflex

        3. Chain of reflex

          Behavior is behavior that consists of several sub-behavior is a reflex that occurs continuously. Because reflex to stimulate others to work continuously until the completion of the mission or purpose of the behavior to stop. Originally the word Instinct But since the Instinct Has a much broader meaning Which may include inherited behavior of any kind It is not used chain of reflex take a specific beings types. Although this behavior may be an inherited behavior which expressive without having to learn. But some behaviors are expressed on the availability of the first. Such as the flight of birds This was the first bird can not fly, and so on.

         An example of such a chain of reflex

๐ The baby's suckling.
๐ The nests of birds and insects.
๐ The spider's webs.
๐ Feeding of Each type of animal such as squirrels gnawing coconut.
๐ The Courtship of animals
๐ Hatching and rearing of young animals.
๐ Greylag goose's egg rolling
๐ Biological clock group behavior
     - The nocturnal
     - hibernation
     - Migration of animals

    

          The baby's suckling is a chain of reflex by stimulation of the stimulus is hunger. When I touched the suckling and nipple encourages children to stimulate swallowing a Reflex. When children are not satisfied, it encourages children, so the next sucker suckling behavior to stop behaving filled rooms.

nests of Red-whiskered bulbul.

nests of Red-billed blue magpie.

nests of Malaysian Pied Fantail.

nests of sparrows.

nests of Stork.

nests of canary.

          It can be seen that the nests of each species will be formed and the shape of the nest varies according to each species. This is the result of the expression of genes that control the behavior of each type of bird.

          Nesting behavior of birds is the flex continuously, but a team of researchers who study the southern masked weaver in Africa.This research report shows that the nests of birds such required experience. The bird fairly diverse styles.
Some nests clockwise circular nests left and even some experienced fewer dropped to the grass.If a bird's nest experience That is a learned behavior. Source of Articlehttp://www.manager.co.th/ 

          The nests of insects, it has the exact form varies according to the species, for example, a nest of wasps, ants, termites, and bees in the image.

nest of bees nest of Oriental hornet or Wasps

         The study species Araneus diadematus spider can spin a web that is formed into a pattern of Species without the spider webs to see how others first. The trial of a spider in vitro culture from birth. When taken out of the tube it was found that those spider webs in the pattern of species without having to learn from other spiders.

          In addition, the experimental study of the behavior and brain function. The spider exposure affects brain function would not be fully webs. And found that the spider will continue to behavior as though it were a fiber gland. But spiders do not produce fibers out.


          The webs of spiders is Chain of reflex, which is another form of Inherited behavior. Scientists concluded that the Inherited. behavior is related to the brain and is expressed when the Releaser or Sigh stimuli. Such Releaser of spider webs in it. The food needs of Spiders.The part of the brain that controls and responds to stimulate Inherited behavior called Innate releasing mechanism (IRM).

Pictures of animal courtship behavior

 

The behavior of a chicken egg. Behavior of birds feeding their young.


        

Greylag goose Greylag goose's egg rolling

          Behavior of the Greylag egg roll use goose beak touching the eggs. Then gently fold the egg back into the nest, which mean the study and observation of behavior. Found that this type of behavior goose egg roll in a Fix action pattern without learning first.

Biological clock
          It is a pattern of behavior over time to determine the body clock, which is set in the chain of reflex, such as nocturnal, hibernating, migration of animals.

The nocturnal habits of owls.

 

Hibernation behavior of rats

 

Salmon fish migration to spawning.

         Migration of salmon, after several years of living and foraging at sea.They will find their way back to the original source of fresh water on it growing up and they had to be united to the end, and ended his life there.Research has suggested that Pacific salmon caused by what he called Magnetic map which allows it to travel thousands of kilometers immigrants.The researchers said that those fish may be nervous about the Earth's magnetic field ingrained inborn.The fish used in this study did not evacuate before.Scientists say that these fish have a sensory field inborn rather than acquired through training or learning.

          The researchers believe that other creatures such as turtles, sharks and whales may use the same technique on a trip to the ocean, it could be.

 

Migration of birds

       Because each animal would have to evacuate the exact path and always fixed (Fix action pattern), which is characteristic of inherited behavior.
