1. Explain how hormones can affect the environment during development and

2. What is the adaptive significance of restricted developmental programs (an
instinct)?
3. Define imprinting. What is the difference between filial and sexual imprinting?
4. What are the adaptive significances of filial and sexual imprinting?
5. How is trial-and-error learning or operant conditioning important for behavioral
flexibility in animals?
6. Some birds, like Clark's Nutcrackers, learn spatial tasks very well. Explain the
relevance of spatial learning to the foraging behavior of this species.
7. How does play behavior relate to the development of behavior in animals?
