Morphology and Behaviour

      Morphology is the study of the shape of an organism.  Edelman (1991) links morphology with behavior: "subtle changes in form sometimes lead to extraordinary changes in behavior" (p. 48).  "Morphology," he suggests, "is the largest single basis for behavior" (1991, p.  49).  Edelman (1991) states that understanding how behavior affects form and how form affects behavior "is the part of Darwin’s program that remains largely incomplete" (p.48).
