Detailed explanation-1: -Animals have adapted a variety of courtship and mating behaviors to increase the probability of finding a mate. For example, the males of many bird species gyrate their feathers or perform special dances to attract a female.
Detailed explanation-2: -Courtship behavior can include things like food delivery, dance moves (displays), and mutual preening. In many cases, the most extravagant courtship displays belong to the species where males contribute little else to the relationship-think strutting grouse or dancing birds-of-paradise.
Detailed explanation-3: -The intricate moves of a mating dance and the charming songs used to woo partners can help distinguish species, so birds are sure to choose genetically compatible mates. Different courtship behaviors also reduce territorial aggression, letting two birds relax to form a pair bond.
Detailed explanation-4: -Some behaviors increase the chance of producing offspring. These include displays that attract mates. Other behaviors increase the chance that offspring will survive and be able to reproduce. These include protecting and feeding young offspring.
