... The hypotheses agree on five major features of animal phylogeny. 1. All animals share a common ancestor.  Both animal trees indicate that the animal kingdom is monophyletic, representing a clade called Metazoa. 2. Sponges are basal animals.  Sponges branch from the base of both animal trees.  Rec ...

Animal cognition



Animal cognition describes the mental capacities of animals and its study. It has developed out of comparative psychology, including the study of animal conditioning and learning, but has also been strongly influenced by research in ethology, behavioral ecology, and evolutionary psychology. The alternative name cognitive ethology is therefore sometimes used; much of what used to be considered under the title of animal intelligence is now thought of under this heading.Research has examined animal cognition in mammals (especially primates, cetaceans, elephants, dogs, cats, horses, livestock, raccoons and rodents), birds (including parrots, corvids and pigeons), reptiles (lizards and snakes), fish and invertebrates (including cephalopods, spiders and insects).
