First off, migration can be done when there is not enough food during particular seasons in the year, leading animals to move to another location where there is a lot more food present. There are two types of this kind of migration: obligatory, which is when individuals must migrate every year and facultative, which is when individuals only migrate when their food supply runs short.  Migration can also be done when species are only able to reproduce in a certain place, such as sea turtles that who can only reproduce on land. There are also insects that migrate only once in their lifetime, right before they are about to reproduce. In short, migration is characterized by a long-distance movement that is often done due to a shortage of food in one area though it can also be done for reproductive purposes. ]]> 2019-06-27 02:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/krishna_197423/sa4mq1r62ij2/wish/369367106 krishna_197423 https://padlet.com/krishna_197423/sa4mq1r62ij2/wish/369368683 Before animals began to migrate, most of them would stay in the same place per season. However, whenever food became scarce during the harsh winter months, many of these animals ended up dying because they didn't receive enough food. However, among these animals, there were some that used seasonal ques, such as that in the winters, day time was less, to migrate. These animals were able to survive while other animals that waited until all food was gone before leaving the area didn't have the body fat to make it to a place where there was enough food. As a result, many of the animals that waited until the last second ended up dying off. Natural selection favored the birds that moved upon seasonal ques and as they produced more offspring, they were able to pass that trait onto their offspring. In this way, moving upon seasonal ques became an adaptation that allowed the birds to have enough fat stores so they could last their trip. So, migration started off as an instinct to hunger when food ran out, but some individuals had a different behavior that involved moving upon seasonal changes, and that type of migration is what became an adaptation. ]]> 2019-06-27 02:45:49 UTC https://padlet.com/krishna_197423/sa4mq1r62ij2/wish/369368683 krishna_197423 https://padlet.com/krishna_197423/sa4mq1r62ij2/wish/369374702 Social behaviors are extremely important, especially among animals that stay as a group. Social behaviors allow animals to communicate with each other. By staying together, animals are able to increase their chances of finding food and are able to protect themselves from predators. For example, a shark is not going to go after a whole school of dolphins if it finds a single dolphin wandering in the ocean instead. By working together, animals can also find food because they have many members that can search different places for food. Also, it allows predators such as wolves to take down bigger prey, such as bison or elk, that would be dangerous to a single predator. It can also help individuals attract mates. Many different animals have a way of getting the opposite gender to like them and be attracted to them. Overall, I see social behavior as such a flexible topic with many different uses. In many cases, organisms benefit a lot more than they lose from staying together. When it comes to survival especially, social behavior is a surefire way to keep yourself as safe as you can  be as you look for resources. Migration even connects to humans, although we might not travel every season, there are more than enough humans that move from one country to another. Usually, the other country is one with better economic opportunities, and if you really think about it, that country offers a better chance of survival because it can give you a cleaner place to live, you can get work there and get food and water, which is everything you truly need to live.
