Chapter 36, Problem 3PIT
Summary Introduction
To provide:
A specific example of an animal behavior among the three boxes under reproduction with reference to figure 36.28 “Pull it together: Animal Behavior”, and also determine the proximal and the ultimate cause of the behavior described.
Concept introduction:
Reproduction is the process in which there is the production of new organism occurs, that is similar to the parent organism and it thereby helps in the maintenance of continuity of the race. Almost every living organism has the power of reproduction. This process also may give rise to a better yield, variety of offsprings as in case of artificial reproduction as in case of plants.
