Option B is incorrect since it states that humans are the only species capable of transmitting information through demonstration and imitation. Option C is incorrect since the textbook implies that animals can also learn new behaviours through imitation from members of their own species, not just from humans. Option D is incorrect since the textbook does not state that only primates are capable of teaching.
