What is the primary purpose of animal mating and what benefit is it in the agricultural sector

The main purpose of animal mating is to have children and take care of them together so that they may grow up and keep on reproducing many more offspring.

In many poultry farms where farmers raise animals they can help animals when they know about their mating and the other animal which they will like to mate with. And this will help the farmers to get more poultry products like eggs, chicken, cows, goats and even pigs. All these will also help people to have food to eat and sell later

What is Monogamous and Polygamous mating. Give the different types of mating with their examples.

Monogamous mating is simply when a male animal and a female animal love each other and tend to have sex with each other to produce babies and they stay together until one dies and the other will stay single until its own Darth time comes. An example is wolves they mate with only one partner for life hunt and do other activities together.

Polygamous mating
This is when one animal has more than one partner it could be polygyny which is when a male animal is surrounded by many female animals and always be with more than one animals an example is dogs in a place where there are few male dogs and more female dogs the male dogs are often crowded with many other female partner.
