Animal and Plant Responses
Orintation responses
Timing responses
Biological clock
Location
SCN
Optic nerve signals
Response
metabolic rate
Hormone secretion
Melitonin
Heart rate
Hypothalimus
Environmental cycles
Circadian
Circotidal
Circolunar
Circoannual
Function
Entrainment
Zeitgeber
Exogenous
Direct response to an environmental cue
Endogenous
Internal response despite or in absence of cues
Period
Free running period
Phase shift
24 hours +/- (Number of hours/number of days x 60)
Behavoral patterns
Nocternal
Dirunal
Crepuscular
Advantages
Response to stimulants/cues
eg, A crab starts feeding when the tide comes in
Anticipate environmental events
Eg, Plants secreting a protectant from harmfull bugs
Synchronise to abiotic and biotic cycles
eg, A bird knows when to go to breeding grounds
Enhanced biological fitness
Migration
Navigation
Species relationships
Pheremones
Chemical
Intraspecific communication
Innate response
Primer pheremones
Slow, long lasting endochrine, physical amd phsycological changes (Bee worker development)
Depositied, travel through water, trave through air
Releaser pheremoes
Fast acting, causes immiate response (attraction, repulshon)
Interspecific Relationships
Species interactions
Mutualisim
Animals
Resource-resource
Resource-Service
Service-service
Plants
Animals
Pollinators
Fungi
Increased area, increased nutrient uptake
Bacteria
Co-evolution/obligate
Exploitation
Parasitisim
Hebivory
Predation
preditor reguated by prey
Dalayed peak = Gestation period
Competition
Niche differentiation
Less intense competition
Adaptation
Commensalsm
Intraspecific relationships
Communication
Social groups
Heirarchies/organisation
Co-operation
Conflict/Competition
Territories and home ranges
Response types
Innate
Intrinsic
Steriotypic
Heritable
Consumate
Learned
Non-inheritable
Non intrinsic
Permutable
Adaptable
Pregressive
Conditioning, associative learning
Classical
Opperant
Enfourcement
Positive
Negitive
