The amazing example of genetic and environmental influence on animal behavior is?
- Habituation
- Imprinting
- Operant learning
- Insight learning
Explanation
Imprinting is a fascinating example of how both genetic predisposition and environmental factors interact to shape an animal's behavior.
Genetically, young animals are predisposed to form strong attachments during a critical period early in life.
However, the specific object they imprint on (usually their mother) is entirely determined by their environment during this sensitive window.
If a duckling is separated from its mother and exposed to a human shortly after hatching, it will imprint on the human and follow it around instead.
This demonstrates how a genetically programmed behavior (imprinting) is shaped by the specific environmental stimuli encountered during a critical developmental period.
