Answer 1

Male turkeys work to attract female turkeys, but only the dominant turkeys of the group breed. The less dominant turkeys are a good example of animals exhibiting altruism which means selfless behavior. Hope this helped :)

Answer 2

So, all Turkeys work to attract female Turkeys, but only dominant Turkeys benefit from it, and the less dominant Turkeys don't benefit at all from it. That means that they are exhibiting altruism:selfless behavior.

However, in practical terms their behaviour also helps them, as they are often related to the dominant males.
