Design a clocked synchronous state machine with four inputs, G1–G4, that are connected to pushbuttons. The machine has four outputs, L1–L4, connected to lamps or LEDs located near the like-numbered pushbuttons. There is also an ERR output connected to a red lamp. In normal operation, the L1–L4 outputs display a 1-out-of-4 pattern. At each clock tick, the pattern is rotated by one position; the ...

Negative attitudes towards predators do not necessarily result in their killing

Hoo are you? Tits do not respond to novel predators as threats

Published by Elsevi license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) To combat the threat of predation, prey species have developed a variety of ways to recognize and respond appropriately to novel predators. While there is evidence that predator recognition does not require learning in certain species, learnin...

Native Predators Do Not Influence Invasion Success of Pacific Lionfish on Caribbean Reefs

Biotic resistance, the process by which new colonists are excluded from a community by predation from and/or competition with resident species, can prevent or limit species invasions. We examined whether biotic resistance by native predators on Caribbean coral reefs has influenced the invasion success of red lionfishes (Pterois volitans and Pterois miles), piscivores from the Indo-Pacific. Spec...

Do Naı̈ve Primates Recognize the Vocalizations of Felid Predators?

Many species experience relaxed sources of natural selection that affect the evolution of their morphologic, physiologic, and behavioral traits (Fong et al. 1995). Relaxed selection can occur when environmental or social conditions change. These changes may no longer favor traits that were adaptive in the previous conditions (Coss 1999). The persistence of these traits will depend on trade-offs...
