1. The answer is ----- All the options listed.
Explanation :
Ethology is the study of animal behaviour. It is a branch of zoology where in processes of animal behaviour such as animal aggression, mating behaviour, learning habits, communication among them is studied in their natural habitat. They use observational, experimental and comparative methodologies to study the animal behaviour .
All these are behavioural patterns of animals which ethologist study.
2 . The answer is --- Ruffini corpuscule tonic stimulus.
Ruffini corpuscule are found in superficial dermis of both hairy and glaborous skin. They record low frequency vibrations and slight pressure on skin . Therefore , a mother chimpanzee sitting behind and grooming her young one is an example of Ruffini corpuscule tonic stimulus .
While the other options include-
Proprioceptor stimulus --- The tactile stimuli at the bottom of the feet which results in continuous input to the brain through which the global postural changes are made.
Gustation stimulus - It includes a chemical capable of activating taste cells .
Electromagnetic stimulus -- It is recently developed stimulation therapy to activate central and peripheral nervous system.
Merkel cell phasic stimuli -- They include touch stimuli and release neurotransmitters to the adjacent sensory neurons which later develop action potentials.
Thank you.
