Question
A young beach mouse is raised in captivity without any access to dirt or sand or any chance to observe burrowing adults. When given access to dirt, it immediately digs a burrow with the normal shape for its species. What type of behavior is burrow digging in the beach mouse?
- Observational learning
- Innate behavior
- Classical conditioning
- Insight learning
Hint:
- The skill to dig burrows,it got from birth.
The correct answer is: Innate behavior
Innate behaviour
- As there is no option to learn digging before mouse because there is no burrowing adult.
- But still it digs burrow means that it has the skill from birth.
- Innate means from birth and the behaviour of digging burrows in sand is gotten by the mouse from birth.
