which of the following is an example of an instinctive behavior?

• dressing baby girls in the color pink
• pulling on one’s earlobe in response to stress or anxiety
• infant rooting for a nipple
• a smoker’s love of nicotine

Explanation:

First Question (Fill - in - the - blank)

Sweating and shivering are physiological responses that help the body maintain a stable internal environment. Homeostasis refers to the body's ability to maintain a stable internal state despite external changes. Alignment refers to a state of being in line, locus refers to a specific location, and neutral is a general term for a non - extreme state. So the correct term here is homeostasis.

Instinctive behaviors are innate, unlearned behaviors. Dressing baby girls in pink is a cultural learned behavior. Pulling on one's earlobe in response to stress is a learned or conditioned response. A smoker's love of nicotine is a learned and addictive response. Infant rooting for a nipple is an innate, instinctive behavior that helps the infant find food (milk from the mother's breast).

Answer:

homeostasis
