The scientific basis for cock crowing is that it's part of the male's territorial display. He's declaring that this is his patch! The dawn chorus is also a territorial display, with male blackbirds, thrushes, etc, making the same declaration. The difference between their 'crowing' and that of the cock, is that it's less strident and more musical to the ear, but all male birds crow in one form or another.
