The basking of Agama lizards in the sun is to
change the colour of their body
raise their body temperature to become active
fight to defend their territories
attract the female for courtship
Açıklama
Agama lizards bask in the sun to help them regulate their body temperature, their internal temperature depends on external sources like sunlight. while courtship display may occur after basking, the primary purpose is thermoregulation rather than attracting females for courtship.
