Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Aggressive behaviour is a act of violence not without it

Answer 2

The correct answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aggressive behaviour is a type of behaviour which is widespread in the animal kingdom. Animals display this behaviour by expressing it in the form of anger and violence.

Animals use this behaviour mostly to establish its dominant nature in front of the opponent in the competition. This allows animals to either kill an animal in a fight (violence) or establish territorial boundaries and some species compete to mate with the female individual.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.
