Innate Behaviour
Any animal response that does not need to be learned but is instinctive and inherited and is similar in all members of the same species ans is always performed in the same way in response to the same stimulus
Examples
Reflexes: Function is to escape from predators and other dangers.
Spinal reflexes are involuntary responses which follow a specific pattern in response to a given stimulus. They bypass the brain so are involuntary.
Kinesis: Orientation behaviour where the rate of movement increases when the organism is in unfavourable conditions. The behaviour is non-directional.
Woodlice prevent predation and drying out by living in damp, dark areas. They move more slowly or stop when in favourable conditions; this is purely a physiological response as they do not actively seek a damp, dark area.
Taxes: A directional orientation response. An example is postive phototaxis which is movement towards light. Negative phototaxis is the movement away from light.
Worms sense chemicals in the air and move its head from side to side in order to compare signal strengths and detect the direction of the chemical gradient before moving its whole body
