Concept 51.1: Behavioral ecologists distinguish between proximate and ultimate causes of behavior

Behavioral ecology extends observations of animal behavior by studying how such behavior is controlled and how it develops, evolves, and contributes to survival and reproductive success. Concept 51.1: Behavioral ecologists distinguish between proximate and ultimate causes of behavior.
