Hearing may not contribute much to a bee's reproductive success. This is an example of altruism. Bees are too small to have functional ears. If bees could hear, the noise of the hive would be overstimulating. - Answer️️ -Hearing may not contribute much to a bee's reproductive success.

After a couple of weeks of this routine, the graduate student notices that the fish come to the surface to feed as soon as the lights are turned on. The behavior of the fish is a result of _____. cognition classical conditioning imprinting positive phototaxis instinct - Answer️️ -classical conditioning Feeding behavior with a high intake to expenditure ratio is called _____. scavenging optimal foraging heterotrophism agonistic behavior herbivory - Answer️️ -optimal foraging ©SOPHIABENNETT EXAM SOLUTIONS_2024/2025 Tuesday, September 3, 2024 10:30 AM Page | 3 Imagine that you are studying the food preferences of a lizard species across its range. You have hypothesized that because these populations are fairly separate from one another, the lizards have evolved different food preferences. You discover that in the desert, the lizard seems to prefer various types of flies, whereas at higher, wetter altitudes, it prefers one type of beetle. Does this observation support your hypothesis? No. First I need to determine whether the offspring of these lizards, raised in the laboratory under the same conditions, will reflect the parental food preferences. No. This cannot be determined without first sequencing and comparing the lizards' DNA. Yes. The lizards obviously prefer different foods. Yes. Not only do the lizards prefer different foods, but there is also evidence that the foods they prefer are not necessarily the most abundant. No. First, I must determine if both groups can b - Answer️️ -No. First I need to determine whether the offspring of these lizards, raised in the laboratory under the same conditions, will reflect the parental food preferences. You observe a large black bird with a shiny black crest engaging in courtship behavior with a little brown bird. It would be reasonable to hypothesize that this is an example of _____. mating with the wrong species polygyny monogamy polygamy polyandry - Answer️️ -polygamy ©SOPHIABENNETT EXAM SOLUTIONS_2024/2025 Tuesday, September 3, 2024 10:30 AM Page | 4 An individual organism has the option to raise various offspring and/or genetic relatives. Which of the following options represents the greatest genetic success? eight first cousins one offspring and two nieces two offspring one offspring, one nephew, and two grandchildren one full sibling, one grandchild, and two first cousins - Answer️️ -one offspring, one nephew, and two grandchildren The key idea of sociobiology is that _____. human social behavior is the same as animal social behavior animal behavior and human behavior are so different they cannot be
