- Suppose a woman who is AA mates with a man who is aa. What percentage of their children will be Aa? Group of answer choices 100% 25% 0% 75% 50%Make guarding is a reproductive tactic that functions to directly:  A. Increase the number of males to which a male has access. B. Reduce the males paternity uncertainty. C. Increase male reproductive output. D. Reduce the females fitness.  Two male deer compete for access to a female by sparring with their antlers. What type of selection pressure is this? a Intrasexual b Intersexual
- Assume you are studying a lizard that is involved in males displaying to females and females choosing males to mate with. The females will raise the offspring by themselves. Which of the following benefits might females be receiving in this system? a. Direct benefits b. Indirect benefits c. Both a. and b. d. Neither a. nor b.Which of these situations offers the lowest “opportunity for selection” for males? A. Females choose mates with a fancy ornament. B. Every female chooses one male to mate with for life. C. Locations that females need access to in order to reproduce are rare. D. Males fight each other for access to groups of females.Which of the following statements is a reason why females are usually the "choosier" sex? A. They expend fewer resources in caring for their offspring. B. They have higher potential fitness than males. C. They have fewer opportunities to contribute offspring than males. D. They directly compete with each other for mates.
- What does positive assortive mating mean? a. Individuals that are different for a certain trait are more likely to mate b. Individuals that are alike for a certain trait are less likely to mate c. Individuals that are alike for a certain trait are more likely to mate d. Any individuals may mate randomly Give typing answer with explanation and conclusionYou see the results of an eye-tracking study in which infants were required to look at human faces. You see that infant A spent most time looking at the contour of the face, while infant B spent a lot of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. You conclude that infant B is most likely: a.Bilingual b.Showing signs of a developmental disorder c.Younger than infant A d.Older than infant AIn Hamilton's rule, rB > C, the term "C" refers to a. the number of offspring an individual could potentially gain as a result of behaving altruistically b. the average number of offspring an individual is expected to lose as a result of behaving altruistically c. the coefficient of relatedness between two individuals d. the number of offspring gained by an individual that receives help from an altruist
- Why are polyandrous mating systems more rare than polygynous matings? a. Only males are capable of multiple rounds of reproduction within a single breeding season. b. Only females care for the young. c. Females usually experience more intrasexual selection pressure than males. d. Females usually devote more energy to offspring production and development.It can only be one answer. Which of the two would be most likely to happen, B or D?When people move to hot climates, their bodies increase sweat production to manage the heat-induced body stress. This increase in sweat production is passed on to their offspring. In other words, their offspring would display high sweat production as a result of descending from high sweat-producing parents. Question 3 a. True b. False
