Question

A 'courtship behaviour' may best be described as:

• A. the behaviour of a Jackdaw who shows off his feathers
• B. the behaviour of a male bird to attract a female bird
• C. the behaviour by which a male bird displays its beauty to the female bird
• D. the behaviour of any male to win a female of the same species

Answer 1

The correct option is D the behaviour of any male to win a female of the same species

The whole passage is about how a male bird tries to woo a female bird. So, the meaning of courtship can be understood. Had the question asked ‘Jackdaw's courtship behaviour’, the answer would have been option (b), but here it just asks ‘courtship behaviour’ so the correct option in this case is option (d).
