the slips of microscope
directions in order from
the first step to the last.

16. What are some ways animals differ?

17. Definition or
Behaviors explanation
Examples
Predator: eat animals
Prey: eaten
In order to stay alive;
Camouflage: blend in with
1. Survival Find food, water, avoid
background
being eaten; use little energy
Coloration: bright, etc to
warn
Doesn’t depend upon
2. Innate learning or experience; Communication
Influenced by genetics
Modified by watching or
3. Learned experiencing
Language

18. Definition or
Behaviors explanation
Examples
Hibernation: period of
inactivity; lower body
Things done in response to temperature; winter
4. Seasonal the season Estivation: slow period;
hottest part of summer;
reduced activity
Biological clocks: natural
cycles; clues from nature;
seasonal, hibernation,
5. Rhythms Internal clocks or calendars
migration, etc.
Circadian: around the day;
daily cycles; sleep, eat, etc.

19. Definition or
Behaviors explanation
Examples
How animals find their way Landmarks; mental maps;
6. Navigation from place to place smells, etc
Communication; territory;
Interactions with others of pheromones; noise, body
7. Social the same species language, touch; live in
groups

21. Asymmetry: no symmetry; irregular
Radial: like a wheel;
Radiate from center
Bilateral: split down the middle;
2 identical sides

22. What characteristics make
something an animal?
What are some animal behaviors?
Describe 1 type of symmetry.

23. NATURE VS NURTURE…
Innate: controlled by genetics
Learned: innate behavior that
is modified

24. Critical Thinking & Reading
• Read “Masters of Navigation” on the
activity sheet Mrs. Lock gave you.
• Answer the questions regarding
innate and learned behavior.

26. Finding Food…
To find the most food
using the least energy

27. Camouflage…
Blend in
Some change color or appearance

28. Defense…
Protection from predators
Chemicals
Herds

29. Warning Coloration…
Avoid animals with colors
and patterns associated
with pain, illness, etc
Stay away!!!

31. Migration…
Travel from one place to
another
Obtain food, water,
nesting

32. Hibernation…
Period of inactivity
Decreased body temp
In winter
Food is scarce

33. Nonfiction Reading
• Read the article on bat hibernation
on page 24 of your textbook.
• Answer the questions on the activity
page Mrs. Lock gave you.

34. Estivation…
Period of reduced
activity
In summer

36. Biological Clock…
Internal control of
natural cycles
Use clues from
surroundings to set
“clock”
When to fly south

37. Internal Clock Activity
• Find the Internal Clock activity
• Using a stopwatch, have 1 partner
estimate the time of 60 seconds. Repeat
the trial 2x.
• Estimate 60 seconds while taking pulse.
• Estimate 60 seconds while breathing.
• Switch partners.
• Answer the questions.

38. Circadian Rhythms…
Daily cycles
When to go to bed

39. Yawning Cycles
• For 1 day, keep track of the number of times
you yawn. Take note of what times and
what conditions are present when you
yawn.
• Graph your data on the activity sheet Mrs.
Lock gave you.

40. Navigation…
Find way from one place to
another

41. Between animals in the same species

42. Communication…
Smell; pheromones
Sound
Body language
Touch

43. Living in Groups…
Pros
Help spotting predators
Help finding/killing food
Cons
Attract predators
Compete for food
Transmit disease

46. Animal Behavior Assignment
• Make a chart – Behavior / Definition/
Example / Innate or Learned
• List 5 of the 10 behaviors discussed today.
• Write a definition for each behavior.
• Then, give an example for each behavior.
• Finally, identify whether your example is
innate or learned.

47. Behavior Definition Example Innate or
Learned?
