Ck 12: Life Science: Learned Behavior of Animals

Curated by ACT

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Just about all human behaviors are learned. Learned behavior is behavior that occurs only after experience or practice. Learned behavior has an advantage over innate behavior: it is more flexible. Learned behavior can be changed if conditions change. For example, you probably know the route from your house to your school. Assume that you moved to a new house in a different place, so you had to take a different route to school. What if following the old route was an innate behavior? You would not be able to adapt. Fortunately, it is a learned behavior. You can learn the new route just as you learned the old one. Learn more about learned behavior of animals in this learning module produced by CK-12.
