(P4) the digestion system The digestive system is also known as the alimentary canal from the mouth to the anus.

These soluble particles are major

behaviours must be Learned. A learned behaviour in not instinctive‚ but must be taught or acquired through learning‚ influenced by their experiences in their environment. A baby using the potty and talking are examples of learned behaviour. As opposed to reflex‚ these behaviours are unfixed and can be changed.

Midbrain- contains reflex centers for movements of the eyes head and neck in response to visual and other stimuli‚ and reflex center for movements of the head and trunk in response to auditory stimuli.

maturation is also fixed by this schedule. One of the best examples of inevitability of these processes in development is disappearance of the reflexive head-turning response to the direction of the source of sound. The temporary disappearance of this reflex probably represents a maturational transition from a reflexive response controlled by sub cortical areas of the brain to a

behaviour is innate. Innate behaviour is defined as natural and instinctive. It is the behaviour present at birth; the instinctive‚ fixed‚ unchanging behaviour that is inherited. Reflexes are innate behaviour‚ and infants are born with several. A reflex is an automatic‚ involuntary response to a specific stimulus some of this includes swallowing‚ coughing and blinking.
