Document Summary
Why did the animal behave that way, tedpods sensed terrestrial predator, trying to protect themselves. Always a combination of genetic and environmental impact/effects. Learned from environmental or genetic from dna, it is an artificial dichotomy; in reality we realize is that this is in fact a continuum. Behavior fall somewhere along line, where there is some genetic influence, influence may be a signal of neuron structure that may facilitate a certain type of understanding of a fact, or it could be learnt, alternating of learn. Epigenetic effects short lived, can last through generations, dna methylation turning on and off genes, Need to understand that there is an genetic element, if no genetic element, we wouldn"t be talking about evolution of behavior: deprivation experiments. Prevent learning opportunities through isolation of subject. Idea is that is to deprive an individual early in life and then test it later. No possibilities of learning, but exhibit element of behaviors.
