In Biology, group behavior refers to actions made by one organism that help to the survival of another organism in the group.

Some examples are:

• Meerkats have lookouts for predators

,

• Bees have designated individuals for different tasks, such as foraging for food or defending the nest.

,

• Sharing food resources.

,

• Migrating birds fly in formation to conserve energy.

,

• Fish swim in schools to avoid predators

One consequence of the organisms living in groups and doing group behaviors is that is easier to find a mate, given that they don't have to travel to find another individual of the same species.

This means that B) having an easier time finding mates, would be the right answer.
