In a long-term research project that Marc did with some of his students on patterns of antipredatory scanning by western evening grosbeaks, they found that birds in a circle ____ more coordination in scanning than did birds who were feeding in a line.
The birds in a line, who could only see their nearest neighbor, not only were less coordinated ____ scanning, but also were more nervous, changing their body and head positions significantly more than grosbeaks in a circle, where it was possible for each grosbeak to see every other grosbeak.

The choice of whether or not to breastfeed exclusively is a completely personal decision for every mother and the role it plays in preventing the development of future allergies is still up for debate, but breastfeeding does appear to be beneficial for the development of the baby’s ____ microbiome.
If mothers decide to breastfeed their children, they should nevertheless be aware of one thing: breastmilk, on its own, does not contain beta-lactoglobulin proteins like those present in cow’s ____.

As a ____ of this phenomenon, breastmilk can trigger cow’s milk protein allergies in certain babies.

Cognitive governance means that factual beliefs guide how imagining ____.
When Kevin imagines lightning hitting a tree, he next imagines the tree bursting ____ flame.
But that ____ transition — from imagining the lightning strike to imagining the flames — doesn’t come from nowhere.
Kevin’s factual beliefs (that lightning is extremely hot and that trees are wood and hence flammable) guide his imagination from ____ imagining to the next.
If he didn’t have these factual beliefs about lightning and trees, his imaginings wouldn’t unfold in that ____.
Thus, factual ____ govern inferential transitions among imaginings (as well as other secondary cognitive attitudes).
Otherwise put, the ____ stored in a person’s factual beliefs guides how that person’s imaginings unfold; it does the same for other cognitive attitudes.
Importantly, imaginings don’t do the same for factual beliefs, and this lack of ____ is a defining contrast.
