The digger bee’s “postcopulatory courtship” consists of elaborate tactile stimulation that the male provides his partner after she has accepted his sperm. Why is this behavior a Darwinian puzzle, and what might its adaptive value be? Dont' write from any online source.

Hello! I have a question. Question: Describe what the offspring (fish) that is complete dominance looks like. (Picture below)
Determine whether the reproductive behavior is evolutionary stable or unstable: Cowbirds are nest parasites. The females sneak into other birds' nests and lay their eggs, often removing the host bird's eggs. The cowbird eggs tend to match those of the host's eggs, and often the host does not detect that the cowbird's eggs have replaced their own. The host birds raise the cowbird chicks to maturity.
Which of the following sexual traits is LEAST likely to have evolved due to male-male competition for mates, also known as intraspecific sexual selection?a) Enlarged femurs that an insect uses to kick other malesb) Brushes on the tip of a dragonfly penis used to remove sperm of other malesc) Mate-guarding behavior of a warbler during the female’s fertile periodd) Elongated tails of the male swordtail fish used during courtship
Parasites are often microscopic in size but have large negative effects on their hosts. If this is true for the parasites of songbirds, what predictions follow about their effects on male song performance, and how should females respond to the song of infected males as opposed to uninfected individuals (Garamszegi 2005)?

Define sexual selection and describe an example of intersexual and intrasexual sexual selection in animals. Be sure to detail what trait(s) is/are being sexually selected.
In animals, the form of inter-sexual communication is often tied to the environment in which they live and operate. Describe how different forms of communication are linked to the environment in herptiles using three examples from three different taxonomic Orders.
" Individuals can evolve and adapt." Please explain in detail why this is false and a misconception.
