Question

A mouse runs into an underground tunnel when it sees a hawk fly overhead. This is an example of: A. A negative response or a positive response to hide?

Answer 1

negative response

Step-by-step explanation:

There exists three types of responses to a certain stimuli, a positive, negative, or ignoring. A positive response is when the subject is attracted to the stimuli, while a negative response is when the subject wants to avoid the stimuli. Therefore in this situation we can say that this is a negative response when the mouse hides. In this case the hawk flying over is the stimuli and the rat is trying to avoid the hawk by hiding.
