Behaviors or physical traits can affect reproductive success. Two groups of male lizards were observed in the same rocky area during the same month. Group T performed more push-up displays (a behavior) per hour than Group L. Researchers also counted the number of times each group was seen paired with a female and the number of nests later found in their territories. What evidence links the display behavior to reproductive success in this study?
