Pick an insect of your choice that has an interesting mating behavior, it HAS to be an insect, spiders are not insects and therefore spiders can’t be used. Once you choose the insect, pick two primary journal articles that talk about the insect’s mating behavior that you chose.
ANSWER THESE 4 QUESTIONS:
1) What is the behavior? How does it work in this species? Is there anything unique about it? Is it adaptive? Explain.
2) How did this behavior evolve? How does it compare to other closely related insects? Is it novel or newly
evolved? Is it a common behavior or only seen in one particular species or group.
3) How are researchers studying insect mating behavior? What kind of studies are being done?
4) What is the new research? Explain what the new research is and how it is expanding what we know about
insect mating in this group.
CITATIONS NEED TO BE MLA, ONLY CITATIONS SHOULD BE THE TWO PRIMARY JOURNAL ARTCILES. I will attach a file with the professors instructions for the assignment
