Animal Behavior

2. Positive effect of a trait on an individual's reproductive success
3. The intensity of a waveform
4. Refers to young that remain in the nest for a period of time
7. Cooperative behavior that lowers the donor's reproductive success while increasing the success of the recipient
10. A segment of DNA that encodes information about the sequence of amino acids that make up a protein
11. A color-pigment that animals produce in skin and hair
12. The ability to determine the direction of movement
14. When the donor benefits from a social interaction but the receiver does not (deceit/manipulation)
15. Contribution a trait makes to a species fitness
17. Permanent movement from birthplace to somewhere else
18. The rate at which the amplitude of a stimulus increases and decreases
19. The ability to attachments to or to attend to particular stimuli early in development
20. Mating system where males fertilize the eggs of several females
21. Region of DNA containing many linked genes that can influence the development of a behavioral phenotype
23. A mating system in which one male mates with one female and vice versa
25. Mental process of acquiring knowledge through thought,experience and the sense

1. When an edible species resembles a distasteful or dangerous one
5. Intentional killing of offspring
6. When associating in groups makes it less likely that an individual will be kill
8. A chemical substance produced by an animal that affects the behavior or physiology of others of it's species

13. An area in which individuals exhibit a readiness to defend
14. The point of near-contact between one nerve cell and another
16. Having 2 sets of chromosomes and, therefore, having 2 copies of genes
20. When young are mobile soon after birth
22. A colony that has 1 reproductive queen
24. A sensory signal capable of triggering complex behavior
