Learning, the modification of behavior as a result of experience, can take many forms.

Cognition- the process of knowing that involves awareness, reasoning, re-collection, and judgment.
Learning through observing and interpreting behaviors and their consequences is called social learning.
Altruism- describes a behavior that reduces an animal's individual fitness but increases the fitness of other individuals in the population.
The coefficient of relatedness, r, equals the fraction of genes that, on average, are shared.
Natural selection that thus favors altruism by enhancing the reproductive success of relatives is called Kin Selection
