If a female of a monogamous social wasp species could help to produce more sisters with an r of 0.75, why would she ever reproduce personally, given that the relation of reproducers to their offspring is just 0.5?

In some animal species, being tall is dominant over being short. If a homozygous dominant individual mates with a short individual, what is the chance that their offspring will be heterozygous?
Polygyny is a common mating system in nature. Which one of the following scenarios is LEAST likely to result in a polygynous mating system?
Male stalk-eyed flies form leks where receptive females come visit
Male Neotropical giant damselfly defend water-filled tree holes, which are the oviposition sites for females. Suitable tree holes for oviposition are rare and females must mate with the resident male in exchange for access to the oviposition sites.
Male Bengal tigers defend large territories that contain food sources. Female Bengal tigers visit male territories to mate. The density of the Bengal tiger is extremely low that male tigers rarely encounter more than one female in their lifetime.
In the bumblebee-wolf Philanthus bicinctus, females are unreceptive until they finish constructing the long underground burrow as nest sites. Males search for locations containing a number of newly constructed burrows and attempt to control these sites against the intruders.

- What are the answers to the second picture? The one on sex linkagearrow_forwardIn seahorses, males incubate and care for offspring. Thus, the males are more likely to be tied up in reproduction at any point in time relative to females. Which sex do you predict will be the choosey sex in this species and why? Males -- because fewer are available to mate Males – because male-male competition is incredibly strong Females – because sperm are cheap to produce Female – because the operational sex ratio is biased in their favorarrow_forwardThe Asian sea bass, a marine fish, changes sex during its lifetime. The sea bass breeds in large groups, with fish of both sexes "broadcast spawning" in the same area -- that is, they expel their gametes into the water rather than pairing off. There does not seem to be any male-male competition for mating rights. Females spawn several times per season and males may fertilize the eggs of multiple females. Do you think that the sea bass are protandrous or protogynous? Explain your answer in terms of the evolutionary advantages of the strategy. Edit View Insert Format Tools Tablearrow_forward
- There are three colored feathers colors for birds. A bird with red fur reproduces with a bird that has blue feathers .The offspring are all birds with purple feathers. Two bird with purple feathers reproduce, and their offspring include 15 birds with purple fur, 7 birds with red feathers, and 8 birds that have blue fur. Imagine if you crossed a bird with purple feathers to a bird with red fur, what proportions, would you predict to find?arrow_forwardCould hawthorn and apple maggot flies be considered an example of assortative mating?

- Assume you are studying a species of slug where the eggs are fertilized and transferred to the male. As a result the male is not able to increase reproductive success by mating with multiple partners. Therefore which of the following about sexual selection in this species is not true? Females are more likely to develop traits that signal genetic quality to males. Females will be able to increase reproductive success with increased mating partners. Sexual selection in males will lead them to be choosy with what females they mate with. Sexual selection in males will lead them to mate indiscriminately when they find a female.arrow_forwardIn the species Chinchilla chinchilla, Neotropical crepuscular rodent of the parvorder Caviomorpha, a mating between a homozygous long-tailed chinchilla male and a homozygous short chinchilla female will produce all medium length tail chinchilla offspring. When these medium length tail chinchilla offspring F₁ are mated, their offspring consists of 3 tail-less chinchillas, 24 long-tailed chinchillas, 120 medium-length tailed chinchillas, and 15 short-tailed chinchillas. What genetic interaction may be occurring in this population? Please explainarrow_forwardIn a population of North American rabbits, brown fur color is dominant to white fur color. If two heterozygote rabbits mate, what is the chance of having a white furred bunny?arrow_forward
