This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Animal Migration def mech, internal "clock" adjusts for movement of the sun/stars over time, 2 geographical areas involving individuals of successive generations, internal "map & compass" using different orienting systems landmarks: for example: birds, elephants, ability of animals to find their way accurately without physical map or instruments (i.e. compass) involving seasonal movement that is long distance and round-trip, Animal Migration mechanism (how it works) is: navigation, internal "map & compass" using different orienting systems Path integration for example: mammals, exhibited (generally) by Salmon migrating to give birth in rviers, individuals of successive generations including Monarch Butterflies, navigation involving internal "map & compass", internal "map & compass" using different orienting systems Dead Reckoning, for example: honey bees, homing pidgeons and some seabirds, individuals of the same generation including Hawks, 2 geographical areas involving individuals of the same generation, seasonal movement that is long distance and round-trip between 2 geographical areas, Animal Migration is defined, internal "map & compass" using different orienting systems orientation by sun & stars for example: sandhoppers, birds, bees, defined as ability of animals to find their way accurately without physical map or instruments (i.e. compass), Monarch butterflies migrating South in Autumn and is adaptive because It allows individuals to gather food & survive the winter, internal "map & compass" using different orienting systems Earth Magnetic Field for example: Monarch Butterflies, exhibited (generally) by Monarch butterflies migrating South in Autumn, Salmon migrating to give birth in rviers and is adaptive because their offspring experience fewer predators
