Since the time of Darwin, two interpretations of instinct have predominated. The first view emphasizes the urge, energy, drive, impetus, or motivation behind behavior. Thus, one reads about the «maternal instinct», «territorial instinct,» or «sex instinct.» Influential adherents of this view, such as Freud, James, and McDougall were impressed by the fact that, while the behavior used to attain a goal or satisfaction could vary greatly, similar motivations and the discharge of

Сsome kind of internal tension or energy were involved.

The second interpretation restricts the term «instinct» to instinctive behavior.

It emphasizes specific motor patterns, such as prey killing, courtship, and nest building, as well as the stimuli that trigger them. In many animals highly stereotyped behaviors (called species-specific behavior) common to all members of the species often appear in virtually complete form in the absence of any obvious opportunities to learn them. For example, ducklings reared apart from their parents walk, peck, swim, and recognize the maternal call. This more objective use

и of «instinct», unlikeбthe first, could not deal adequately with the variability and

modifiability of behavior seen in many mammals, including monkeys and humans. Today much evidence has accumulated that shows that «instinct» encompasses an enormous range of mechanisms underlying behavior and its development. Although all behavior is to some extent influenced and shaped by innate (genetic)

and environmental factors, «instinct» is more and more used today to connote the natural behavior of animals (from sea slugs to humans) upon which natural selection must have acted.

An opinion is a judgment, viewpoint, or statement that is not conclusive.

A given opinion may deal with subjective matters in which there is no conclusive finding, or it may deal with facts which are sought to be disputed by the logical fallacy that one is entitled to their opinions.

Distinguishing fact from opinion is that facts are verifiable, i.e. can be agreed to by the consensus of experts. An example is: "United States of America was involved in the Vietnam War," versus "United States of America was right to get involved in the Vietnam War". An opinion may be supported by facts and principles, in which case it becomes an argument.

Different people may draw opposing conclusions (opinions) even if they agree

on the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being

presented. It can be reasoned that one opinion is better supported by the facts than

another, by analyzing the supporting arguments.

"The scientific opinion" (or scientific consensus) can be compared to "the public

opinion" and generally refers to the collection of the opinions of many different scientific organizations and entities and individual scientists in the relevant field. Science may often, however, be "partial, temporally contingent, conflicting, and

uncertain"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpinionД- cite note-Wynne-2 so that there may be no

accepted consensus for a particular situation. In other circumstances, a particular scientific opinion may be at odds with consensus.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion - cite_note-Wynne-2 Scientific literacy, also called public understanding of science, is an educational goal concerned with providing the public with the necessary tools to benefit from scientific opinion.
