Imprinting
This is the example of imprinting that our bio textbook uses. If a ducking sees a human at an early enough age, the duckling will imprint onto the human by becoming attached to him or her, and will believe that the human is their mother figure, and will take to following him or her around.
Imprinting -The process by which certain animals form attachments during a critical period very early in life.
