1. The time during imprinting when specific behaviors can be learned in is called the

sensitive period

2. Which of the following is true about imprinting?

it may be triggered by visual or chemical stimuli

3. A type of learning that can occur only during a brief period of early life and results in a behavior that is difficult to modify through later experiences is

imprinting

4. A chemical produced by an animal that serves as a communication to another animal of the same species is called?

a pheromone

5. Communication involves what type of sensory information?

visual, auditory, and chemical

6. Sow bugs become more active in dry areas and less active in humid areas. This is an example of

kinesis

7. You turn on a light and observe cockroaches scurrying to dark hiding places. What have you observed?

taxis

8. Loss of responsiveness to stimuli that convey little or no new information is called

habituation

9. Which of the following could be classified as habituation?

You enter a room and hear a fan motor. After aperiod of time, you are no longer aware of the motor's noise. One morning you awake to a beep-beep-beep from a garbage truck working on a new early morning schedule. The next week the garbage truck arrives at the same time and makes the same noise, but does not wake you up.

10. Learning in which an associated stimulus may be used to elicit the same behavioral response as the original sign stimulus is called

classical conditioning
