Instinctive behaviors is a necessary life function that provides many benefits and I believe the instinctive behavior is a very useful behavior to have. Some benefits are that it helps organisms to reproduce and survive which relates to natural selection . For example, a form of innate behavior occurs in honeybees. A honeybee will "dance" when they find food. The dance signals other bees where to find the source of food and this assist the honeybees to remain alive and reproduce so the behavior can be passed down from generation to generation. Another example of innate behavior is breathing and chewing because it is a reaction that is not taught but rather something that a organism knows how to do without learning it.  Instinctive behaviors also allows organisms to react quickly to danger without thinking.

A innate behavior are behaviors that don't have to be learned or practiced. It occurs naturally in every individual in a specie. For instinctive behavior to occur in organism, they must be exposed to  certain stimulus. Stimulus are events or things that evoke a certain behavior from animals. The behavior usually involves basic life functions, like caring for a offspring. All members of the same specie will always carry out instinctive behavior in the same way.

A innate behavior is genetically wired into an organism. It can be execute without much difficulty and without prior experience.  For example, when sea turtles hatched on a beach, they will automatically move to the ocean because of innate behavior. Natural selection favors innate behaviors because this certain behavior helps organisms to survive and reproduce so they can passed it down to future generations.
