How to use "Mating" in context?
Mating is a biological process that is responsible for producing offspring in many species of animals. The mating process typically includes Chemical cues between male and female, Antennae Copulation, and Egg Laying.
Chemical cues are responsible for stimulating the male to attempt to mate with the female. The release of pheromones can be attractive to the opposite sex, or it can warn the female of potential danger. Antennae Copulation is the process of the male and female exchanging antennae. This behavior is used to assess the other sex, and can also indicate sexual interest.
