2.  Most reptiles do not care for their young, but some crocdiles do. Would you suspect that learned behavior is more or less important to crocodiles than it is to other reptiles?

Answer
Mammals exhibit more learned behavior then fish

Learned behavior is more important to crocodiles then it is to other reptiles
