Document Summary
Frugivorous jamaican fruit bat learn taste diversion easily. Blood feeding vampire bat should lose ability to easily learn taste diversion. Vampire bats do not experience bad blood (no toxins) Hypothesis: a neural substrate for rapid learning of taste aversion is not maintained by. Observations: frugivores and insectivores do not eat that flavor after feeling sick, shows taste diversion; however, vampire bats do not learn taste diversion, they continued to eat flavor after feeling sick. A neural substrate for rapid learning of taste aversions is not maintained by stabilizing selection in vampire bats. Rapid learning of taste aversion occurs in other bats and mammals that may experience toxic foods. Lobsters can navigate back home at night using earth"s magnetic field. Learning has the most influence on behavior when ___. Making mistakes does not result in serious detriment, and when animals have parents or other sources to learn from.
