Instinct differs from learned behavior in that instinctive behavior:
A. does not change; learned behavior does.
B. is acquired; learned behavior is genetic.
C. is adaptive; learned behavior is not.
D. All of these answers are true.
is it A
2. The carrying capacity of an area can be reduced if there is too much:
A. energy.
B. raw material.
C. waste.
D. All of these answers are true.
im confused between C n D
try C. Waste reduces production efficiency, thereby reducing carrying capacity.
To determine the correct answers for the given questions, let's break down the options and analyze them one by one:
1. Instinct differs from learned behavior in that instinctive behavior:
A. does not change; learned behavior does.
B. is acquired; learned behavior is genetic.
C. is adaptive; learned behavior is not.
D. All of these answers are true.
The correct answer is A: Instinctive behavior does not change, while learned behavior can be modified or altered based on experience. To determine this, you should know that instinctive behavior is innate and present in organisms from birth, while learned behavior is acquired through experience or teaching.
2. The carrying capacity of an area can be reduced if there is too much:
A. energy.
B. raw material.
C. waste.
D. All of these answers are true.
In this case, the correct answer is D: All of these answers are true. The carrying capacity of an area refers to the maximum population size that an ecosystem can sustainably support based on its resources and environmental conditions. If an area has an excessive amount of energy, raw material, or waste that exceeds the ecosystem's capacity to handle and sustain, it can lead to a reduction in the carrying capacity. Therefore, all options (energy, raw material, and waste) can contribute to a reduction in carrying capacity.
Remember that to answer these questions correctly, it is important to have a basic understanding of the concepts being asked and think critically about the information provided in the options.
