The images below depict a female (left) and male (right) primate of the same species. Based on these images, would you agree that a high degree of sexual dimorphism is present? If so, what traits indicate this? Mark all that apply. Group of answer choices Yes, a high degree of sexual dimorphism. No sexual dimorphism - these would be considered an example of sexual monomorphism. Male has much larger canines. Male has a sagittal crest Male is much larger in overall size

Phalaropes are shore birds with brightly colored females and dull colored males. Females are larger than males and compete with each other for access to males. Considering sexual selection theory, select the idea(s) below that seem(s) most plausible in light of the pattern of sexual dimorphism? Pick all that apply This is a picture of a brightly colored female: O Females incubate eggs and care for the young. Males incubate eggs and care for the young Males are choosy. males are not choosy

Figure is attached Please consider sexual selection operating on red-collared widowbirds assess the lowercase-Roman-numeral-labelled statements that appear immediately below; and click the uppercase-letter-labelled response that is presented below and conveys the most accurate information. i. The specimen depicted at the top in the figure represents the group in which individuals were manipulated experimentally, trimmed so that tail lengths were shortened substantially.ii. The specimen depicted at the bottom in the figure represents the group in which individuals were unmanipulated, left untrimmed.iii. Individuals in the group represented by the specimen at the bottom fared better in condition (measured as body mass relative to length) terms than did individuals in the group represented by the specimen at the top. iv. Individuals in the group represented by the specimen at the bottom spent more time flying and displaying to potential mates than did individuals in the group represented…

[Note that the open circles and dotted line represent data collected from females and the closed circles and solid line represents data collected from males.] 200 - 150 100 50 1 2 4 5 Number of mates (mating success) O a. Sexual selection is stronger on females than males. O b. Males have a weaker Bateman gradient than females. O C. Females likely invest more in the reproductive process. O d. Males likely exhibit parental rather than females. Number of offspring (reproductive success)

In order to test this claim, you should turn over card 2 and card 3. Consider this claim: "If a card has a whale on one side, then it has a trait common in mammals on other the side."

Which of the following statements is true about certainty of paternity? Question 12 options: Certainty of paternity is low when egg laying and mating occur together, as in external fertilisation. Certainty of paternity is high in most species with internal fertilisation because the acts of mating and birth are separated by time. Certainty of paternity is low when males guard females they have mated. Paternal behaviour exists because it has been reinforced over generations by natural selection
we discuss various mechanisms of sex determination, including the XX/XY system of placental mammals, and the ZZ/ZW system of birds. Monotremes, the most primitive mammals, have a very intriguing sex determination scheme that shares elements of both of these systems. Please use the internet to learn more about how sex in monotremes is determined. Then write a short essay (300-400 words) describing this system and comparing/contrasting it to the XX/XY and ZZ/ZW systems.
As you know chimpanzees in neighboring groups in the forest show 4-5 times as much genetic difference as any two human populations. Is it reasonable to expect that trait that show genetic variation in humans, such as the structure of the hand and the brain, might show significant variation between chimpanzee populations? Why or why not?
A male and female gibbon that are similar in size likely demonstrate the lack of sexual dimorphism… A : due to the polygamous social structure in gibbons. B : as the result of unequal access to resources within their environment. C : which is not related to social structure in gibbons. D : due to adaptations related to Allen’s rule. E : due to decreased competition for mates in a monogamous social structure.
A naturalist visiting an island in the middle of a large lake observes a species of small bird with three distinct types of beaks. Those with short, crushing beaks (BB) consume hard-shelled nuts, those with long, delicate beaks (bb) pick the seeds from pinecones, and those with intermediate beaks (Bb), consume both types of seeds though they are not as good at either. Assume that this difference in beak morphology is the result of incomplete dominance in a single locus gene. Which of the mated pairs below will have the best adapted offspring in a year in which most of the food available is in the form of hard-shelled nuts? Show all work. Long delicate beak (bb) x short crushing beak (BB) Intermediate beak (Bb) x intermediate beak (Bb)
What is variation? Give its importance. What are the possible causes of variations? Give specific examples. How would you know or identify if the cause of variation is genetic, environmental, or both? Classify these variations as to "species characteristics" or "individual characteristics".
