Which of the following is NOT one of the potential mechanisms allowing kin recognition among animals? Group of answer choices kin-differential spatial association, so that kin are reliably found in a given place phenotype matching, whereby kin are identified through comparison of their phenotypic attributes with those learned from reliable kin, including oneself kin-differential familiarization, whereb social familiars are treated as relatives. kin-branding, whereby all individuals are labeled actively by each other at birth so that kin can be discriminated from nonkin. genetic similarity detection, whereby phenotypic labels are correlated with one's underlying genotype, allowing for kin discrimination based on that.

Answer:

The correct answer is "kin-branding, whereby all individuals are labeled actively by each other at birth so that kin can be discriminated from nonkin".

Explanation:

Kin recognition, also known as kin detection, is an ability developed by some animals to detect organisms that are genetic related and discriminate among other animals that are not (nonkin). There are some mechanisms that animals use for kin recognition, however labeling actively each other is not one of them. In most cases, animals use kin recognition based on pheromonal cues.
