Answer to Question 1

Descartes' notion of mind-body dualism holds that some human behaviors are reflexes that are automatically elicited by external stimulation, while other behaviors are freely chosen and controlled by the mind. He believed that nonhuman animal behavior is entirely reflexive, while human behavior is a combination of reflexes and freely chosen behaviors.
