What is 'innate behaviour'? Where does it feature in the environment? And how does it compare to 'learned behaviour?
Innate behaviour is instinctive; it is determined by our nervous system and does not involve conscious decision. It is often inflexible, such as a reflex response to a stimulus. We do not acquire innate behaviour through learning and practice, but are born with the behaviour pattern 'hard-wired' into our nervous system. We have inherited the response in our genes from our parents. There is little variation in response between individuals. You do not need to learn how to sneeze, or a spider does not learn how to spin a web; this things come 'naturally'. Learned behaviour however does involve learning, and we modify our learned behaviour responses as a result of experience. This means that learned behaviour does vary between individuals.

Asexual reproduction only needs one parent; all the offspring are clones. This means they are genetically identical to one another and to the parent.
Many plants use asexual reproduction, like spider plants. Bacteria also reproduce asexually in a process called binary fission. And even some animals
In this video you will learn how weird and wonderful animals are formed in the process of speciation and the formation of new species.
Different selection pressures select for different characteristics. Over generations, the individuals with the beneficial traits will prosper, and others will die
If a plant has enough water, minerals and energy it will grow right? Well sort of… but there is more to it - like why do plants bend towards the light and not just grow straight? And how come the stem grows up but the roots grow down? It isn’t as if a plant has eyes to tell it where the sun is.
