Define behavior and know what types of organisms exhibit behavior. Recognize that behaviors are encoded by genes and can evolve by natural selection. Define and differentiate between proximate and ultimate behaviors. Learn how behavior generates evolution of life history strategies through an evolutionary cost-benefit analysis. Connect behaviors with individual and inclusive fitness, and the potential for altruism; inclusive fitness is dictated by the relatedness between individuals.

Part One:
Describe resource, resource partitioning, character displacement, and the niche concept Identify factors responsible for species to occupy defined niches; distinguish between fundamental and realized niches and explain an example of this concept. Recognize the positive, neutral, and negative pairwise effects that a species can have on another species and be able to name and define the following interspecific interactions competition, predation/parasitism/herbivory, and mutualism.
