Detailed explanation-1: -instinct, an inborn impulse or motivation to action typically performed in response to specific external stimuli. Today instinct is generally described as a stereotyped, apparently unlearned, genetically determined behaviour pattern.
Detailed explanation-2: -Instinct is any unlearned behavior, transmitted by genetics, species specific, and displayed by all members of a species. While it is unlearned, instinct does evolve in response to environmental factors. Instinct is not mere reflex, but rather a pattern of complex adaptive activity.
Detailed explanation-3: -An instinctive behavior is an action in an organism that is performed by all members of their species. They are typically a fixed action pattern (FAP) that occurs as a result of a specific stimulus. Instinctive behaviors are innate abilities-they occur and are present from birth onward and are not learned behaviors.
