This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Wyatt Ch 6 Bhvl Ecology 110718, 1% of birds (Jacana, for example) for which "Sexual Selection" of ....., improved foraging efficiency for example Crows drop whelks onto rocks to break it open, fish for which ????, increased number of offspring over one's lifetime including "Direct Fitness", "Indirect Fitness" defined as ....., it is the height at which energy is most conserved for which the adaptive function is decreased energy expenditure, Great Tits optimize their brood size in the long term (over 2 years) with the 1-year clutch size being 2-4 eggs below maximum (8-9 chicks vs 10-12 chicks), "Behavioral Ecology" for which The behaviors that have evolved are those that increase the "fitness" (survivorshipand reproduction) of the individual exhibiting the behavior, increased number of offspring over one's lifetime including "Indirect Fitness", When both parents are able to provide food for the young & and are needed to successfully rear offspring is exhibited by 90% of bird species, relatively few animals including fish, Polygyny (1 male + > 1 female) is exhibited by mammals that eat plant material that is abundant, "Eusocial" animals for which (mating inds), "Indirect Fitness" for example "Helpers at the nest" ("Cooperative Breeders), The behaviors that have evolved are those that increase the "fitness" (survivorshipand reproduction) of the individual exhibiting the behavior and relate to increased number of offspring over one's lifetime, they drop at a height of 5 m because it is the height at which energy is most conserved, Polygyny (1 male + > 1 female) is exhibited by species in which males defend a territory, Monogamy (1 male + 1 female) is advantageous When both parents are able to provide food for the young & and are needed to successfully rear offspring, "Indirect Fitness" for example "Eusocial" animals, species in which males defend a territory that (in part) functions to ....
