Infants can be taught to 3. swim because they have not yet learned to fear water is a learned and no instinctive behavior.

Step-by-step explanation:

Instinctive behavior is a behavior that is innate, intuitive and can be impulsive; that is someone acts something out without education or learning some skills. Instinctive behavior is natural and people act instinctively from birth. Learned behavior means acquiring some skills to do something, or learn by observation and watching someone do a certain task.

As babies develop to toddlers they learn by putting objects in their mouths or babies crying when they are hungry, frustrated and need a diaper chance are examples of innate behavior. Examples of learned behavior include children learning to swim or to ride a bicycle.
