Lecture 8: Play Systems and Tertiary Process Play

What is the significance of tertiary process play?

Which animal species exhibit object play associated with hunger?

What behavior patterns are typically used in stone play by long-tailed macaques?

In which primate species is object play not associated with hunger?

What is the implication of Model 2 for explaining the object-social play mixture?

Which animal species is mentioned in the text as showing play behavior only in adults?

What kind of play is limited to object manipulations and observed in captive animals?

What did mathematical models demonstrate about the emergence of primary process play in octopus?

What type of play can evolve more easily due to requiring less investment?

Which model suggests that multiple, independent origins co-opt some common neurobehavioral system to produce play?

What are the three process levels useful for categorizing the initiating factors and consequences of play?

What type of play is necessary for maintaining cardiovascular functioning and body flexibility?

Which factor is NOT mentioned as an initiating factor for primary-process play?

What is one of the reasons given in the text for octopus engaging in object play?

Which type of play may be crucial for cognitive accomplishments and reaching developmental milestones?

What is the implication of the shared genes, particularly the master gene, Pax-6, on the evolution of eyes?

Why is play fighting in rats considered to have different developmental stages?

How do eyes from different animal species provide evidence of parallel evolution based on the shared genes mentioned?

Why is it important to identify the age at which play fighting in rats becomes adaptive, as mentioned in the text?

How does the shared genetic component related to the master gene Pax-6 contribute to the diversity of eye structures across different species?
