Question
Chapter 51.2, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The positioning of an object during laboratory testing in order to analyze, whether the insect can reach back at the same place, where a demarcation boundary was created.
Concept introduction: This experiment is based on the “theory of spatial recognition” and the development of“cognitive maps” by insects. It was developed and studied by Niko Tinbergen in “The Netherlands”. The analysis revealed that the insect wasps recognized the developmental boundaries around the nests by forming images in the memory.

Comparing across animals in the image, do you think there is a major difference in the animals' abilities to solve complex problems like mazes, tool use, etc.? Why or why not?
Distinguish between static and dynamic equilibrium. The sense of equilibrium (balance) is really two senses— static equilibrium and dynamic equilibrium—that come from different sensory organs. The organs of static equilibrium (stat′ik e″kwı˘-lib′re-um) sense the position of the head, maintaining balance, stability and posture when the head and body are still. When the head and body suddenly move or rotate, the organs of dynamic equilibrium (di-nam′ik e″kwı˘- lib′re-um) detect such motion and aid in maintaining balance.

- Log observations on the feeding behavior of the cockroach in Ta ble 1. Note of the sensory input &motor output corresponding with the behavior of feeding. Sensory input is anything perceived by the senses; the stimuli perceived by the organism like olfactory, visual, mechanoreception, gustatory, & hearing. Motor output results after the nervous system integrates & processes the sensory input. It synthesizes sensory input to compute an appropriate motor response like leg extension etc.arrow_forwardWhat does mindful listening means?arrow_forwardThinking Analytically Do you think there are more species of animals on land or in the ocean?
