How is an animal's internal life (i.e., its physiology and anatomy) integrated with its behavior? Sensory systems provide information from outside the animal that, when integrated, shape behavior. Internal senses, such as hunger or fear, affect behavioral priorities. Motivation describes how animals make choices among possible behaviors, based on the strength of internal needs and sensory inputs.
