Summary Introduction
To discuss:
How the energy investment by a female frog and female human lead to reproductive success.
Concept introduction:
Frogs and humans apply the same reproductive strategy called iteroparity. Iteroparity is where the organism reproduces multiple times over its life span.

In some species, the neotenic characteristics have become a permanent state of the species (obligate neoteny = paedogenesis; both are called paedomorphic conditions). These have lost the ability to undergo complete metamorphosis (hellbender, amphiuma, and mudpuppy). In others, the animal does not undergo complete metamorphosis in nature, but can be induced to do so in the lab. An example of this is the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), a large gilled salamander found in Mexico. In some species of salamanders, members of a population exhibit neoteny only when they are under stressful environmental conditions (such as crowding, scarce food, low concentrations of trace elements). This is called facultative neoteny. Tiger Salamanders (Ambvstoma tigrinum) frequently do this, but local populations of marbled salamanders show a…arrow_forward*Highschool Question: The vast majority of carnivores have tissues that sometimes have a lot of mitonchondria in their cells.

Females in good condition produce males in good condition but females in poor condition. Male offspring are more likely to produce more grandchildren than female offspring. Male offspring are more likely to help provide for the mother and her future offspring. Male offspring tend to mature earlier than female offspring to produce grandchildren sooner.arrow_forwardWhat is the answersarrow_forward
