Answer:

YES, such actions aided the fittest species of animals to reproduce with increase in number of offspring in the population and therefore naturally selected than others.

Generally organism which are well adapted to a particular environments must have possessed certain characteristics/ gene through inheritance from their previous generation. Therefore it is only the survival of the fittest, the adapted ones which will be able to display courtship behaviours to attract females in the population.

Answer:

Yes. They are adaptations because they help animals with high fitness reproduce.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that yes, these are adaptations because they help animals with high fitness reproduce. In Darwin's theory adaptation is anything that has been passed down from generation which helps the organism survive in it's environment, and this includes being able to reproduce.
