Two main cell types - ANSWER neurons and neuroglia the axon - ANSWER dendrites are these branch-like regions if the cell which collect info from other neurons. that info is sent to the cell body where it is processed. the axon is an extension of the cell which propagates the info down toward the axon terminal. the axon terminals form synapses with other dendrites to transmit the info Bioelectricity - ANSWER the basis of which are the charged ions inside and outside the cell. membrane poten...

How does the Morris Water Maze task function? - A mouse is placed in a murky water tank and, because mice do not enjoy being in water, it will try to look for a way out, and after many trials the mouse learns that there is a platform somewhere in the tank upon which it can rest from swimming, and these trials show that the mouse becomes progressively quicker at finding the platform, demonstrating that it maintains memory of where the platform is in the tank; when a trained mouse is given a ...

IB Biology HL Option A.4 Questions and Answers Already Passed What is innate behaviour? Provide an example. inherited from parents and develops independently of environment as it is unaffected by animal's experiences e.g. palmer grasp reflex in babies How can innate behaviour change? What is the rate of change? - can change through evolution via natural selection - rate of change much slower than with learned behaviour Describe how invertebrate experiments can be conducted to observ...
