Summary Introduction

To compare: The cost and benefits of dominance hierarchies and territoriality.

Introduction: The process of mating is dominated by the big and strong individual of a species. In the sociobiology, the presence of a number of individuals does not mean it is social. Dominant hierarchy is represented by the ranking of social status in which one animal has a higher status when compared to the other animals which are lower in rank. The social behavior is described as the interaction of two animals which represents the common species. Territoriality is exhibited by certain species of animals, where these animals defend their territory against individuals of the same species or individuals of different species.
