Found no decrease haviour compared to normal mice. Suggest injections may simply be an experimental side effect and cause behaviour that doesn't translate into real world settings (5, 2, 2) 2. For hunger to be adaptive, must be able to anticipate and prevent energy deficits, not just react to them. __________ commentary (11) 7. Injected NPY into hypothamus of rats.

Damage to ___ causes animals to overeat (hyperphagia). Situlation of ___ inhibits feeding and gives feelings of satiation. PVN damage alone causes hyperphagia (3) 4. Repeated injections of NPY into hypothamuls of rats produces obseisty in just a few days (7, 2, 2) 5. Surgically removed amygdada in rats. Found they would consume both famular and novel foods indiscrimantley (5, 3, 5) 8. Ethics. Determinist. Reductionist. (4)
