True
Stimulus Discrimination?
It's common sense that organisms with similar DNA are more related evolutionary-wise. Analyzing DNA can help us determine which organisms evolved from which organisms.
Analogous selection.
Yes, because the environmental pressures are the same evolutionary processes develop similar responses to the same challenges in the environment; similar physiological and behavioral traits.
They're an example of convergent evolution - two structures with common features which have evolved like that due to a similar/the same purpose despite having unrelated origins. Flippers have hidden fingers.
False
Generalization is the tendency to respond to a stimulus that is similar but not identical to a conditioned stimulus.
Stimulus Discrimination?
Natural selection
be more similar to each other than they are to other species
They have different cultural traits- its in the textbook
stabilizing selection
Convergent evolution
they both respond to changes slowly
an environment similar to the animal's natural habitat.
Probably eubacteria since they are in common environments and are almost similar to bacteria
Simply put, skeletons are similar because the organisms processing them arose from common ancestry. All mammals for instance, have skeletons that are quite similar because all mammal skeletons arose from common ancestry in the Mesozoic age. These mammal skeletons are used in different manner by the entry of populations of organisms into different environments where individuals were selected along lines of adaptation to those different environments. Then the different populations of mammals arose with the very similar skeletons being used in very different ways. Consider yourself, your dog, and whales to see the similarities in skeletal structure with vast differences in use.
