What are the two type of behaviour? What is difference between the two? |
Innate - Genetically controlled and same of each species. Learned - Behaviours that develop through change or experience. |
|
Name the learned behaviours. |
Classic Conditioning Operant Conditioning Observational Imprinting Habituation |
|
Name the Innate behaviours. |
Rhythmic Communication Reproductive Competitive Dominance hierarchies Territoriality |
|
What is the difference between Operant conditioning and classic conditioning? |
Operant conditioning is through trial and error Classic conditioning is responding to stimulus that is originally meaningless |
|
What is an endotherm and ectotherm? |
Endotherm - generate their own internal heat Ecotherm - Reliant on the surrounding or reliant to maintain their core temperature |
|
What is the hypothalamus? |
The control centre receive info from thermoreceptors initiates the response |
|
How can you lose heat? |
Radiation, conduction and convection Evaporation and sweating Behavioural Changes Vasodilation (increasing blood flow in skin) |
|
How can you gain heat? |
Shivering Increased metabolism Vasoconstriction (constriction of blood flow in skin) Piloerection Behavioural Changes (e.g. reducing radiation and conduction) |
|
What is CNS and PNS? |
Central nervous system connected brain and spinal Peripheral Nervous system, all the other nerves receptors that are in the body |
|
What are the types of nerves and their difference between them? |
Sensory neuron - afferent, detects stimuli and transport to the CNS Inter neuron - the connecting neuron and transmit signal to the motor neurons and the CNS Motor neuron - initiates the response |
|
What is negative feedback? |
Cutting off the stimulus, because it is not needed. |
|
Name the parts of a sensory nerve. |
Dendrites Axon Axon terminal Meylin seathe |
|
Explain what Dendrites, axon and axon terminal are. |
Dendrites are the listeners they receive information. Axon is the talker they transmit the information to, Axon Terminal is where the messages are transmitted through the synaptic cleft. |
|
What is the difference between a Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cell? |
Eukaryotes has no nucleus and prokayotes. |
