Summary Introduction
To hypothesize: About the chimpanzee mating system that could be tested by observing one of the groups and the data that would be collected to test hypothesis and also interpret the results.
Concept introduction:
Mating system is a way to build sexual behavior that ensures the inheritance of gene. In chimpanzee the male exhibit behavior patterns like physical force or engaging females in some activities that disarms the female resistance for mating. The females in chimpanzees can mate with many males unless the dominant male stops them to do so.
