CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -A courtship is a set of display behaviours in which an animal attempts to attract a mate and exhibit their desire to copulate. These behaviours often include ritualized movement (“dances”), vocalizations, mechanical sound production, or displays of beauty, strength, or agonistic ability.

Detailed explanation-2: -Courtship in animals is the behaviour by which different species select their partners for reproduction. Usually, the male starts the courtship, and the female chooses to either mate or reject the male based on his “performance".

Detailed explanation-3: -Courtship has been defined as the heterosexual reproductive communication system leading to the consummatory sexual act. Courtship behaviour has many advantages and functions, including the reduction of hostility between the potential sex partners, especially in species in which the male actively defends a territory.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pairs may show courtship behaviors such as grooming each other, playing and wrestling, chasing each other or bumping and hip pushing each other. They will also sniff and lick each other, and a female may even position herself in front of her partner to tell him she’s ready.

Detailed explanation-5: -Courtship behaviours also allow organisms to approach one another without aggression or invasion of their personal space. Sometimes the outcome of courtship behaviour is the formation of a pair bond. This bond results in a better reproductive success, due to the increased survival probability of the offspring.
