Mating

The parental investment model and Bateman’s theory in respect of their ability to explain human mate selection. Darwin said, for the intent of surviving every species reproduce, whether they stay or leave after the offspring is born. Naturally males can reproduce more offspring than females as they are limited by the time, the carry their offspring which is for about nine months whereas, males just need a fertile female in order to reproduce. Brown, Laland and Mulder (2009). Many people have…

other alleles in the population, certain genotypes became specifically present. The non-random mating situation had female fur bunnies specifically desired the furless look in males. In Table 4, the number of bunnies with the genotype of Ff increased from 24 to 36 from Generation 1 to 2. This phenotypically added more fur bunnies to the population and genotypically add more genotypes of Ff because of fur mating with furless. In the genetic drift scenario, the a fire kills of a certain number of…

practices that in turn may develop cultural patterns related to insecurity and aggression? When there is often environmental risk parents respond by adjusting their behaviors. If not able to reduce or eliminate these risk the parents may focus more on mating rather than parenting. Shifting parental efforts may lead to more offspring and a low-intensity childcare creating a potential trajectory for the child or children to be geared in the direction of risky behaviors in uncertain environments.…

Male panther can also mate at the age of two but, because of competition from older and stronger males, they have to wait for their chance until they are three or four years old. Mating can take place any time of the year. During the mating period, the female panther makes a sawing sound to charm a male partner. Then, she will leave scent markings so he can find where she is. After they have mated, he will go back to his territory, while she raises the cubs…

Pandas are one of the cutest animals on earth. They may be cute, but their population is going down. Scientist made research to find why their population decreased. The result showed that they main cause of their extinction were humans. After that discovery, they are trying to look on how they could correct their mistakes. Scientist tried to find why people are so attracted to pandas. They found out pandas were cute. Pandas are really cute, but is that why that cause their extinction? What makes…

lakes near Alaska. The first recorded spotting of the stickleback was in 1964. The rates of fish being caught near Alaska have been recorded for many years and the rate of stickleback caught in the 1990's is double what is being caught now. Mating occurs in early spring and summer for these fish and it starts with the male building a hollow nest with seaweeds or aquatic plants. After much cajoling by the male, the female lays her eggs in the nest and the male takes over parental duties,…

The research article “Stepping Out of the Caveman’s Shadow: Nations’ Gender Gap Predicts Degree of Sex Differentiation in Mate Preferences” by Marcel Zentner and Klaudia Mitura demonstrated gender difference in mating preferences based on evolutionary roots would decline in gender-equal societies (Zentner & Mitura, 2012). Zentner and Klaudia focused on two theories for mate preferences of evolutionary origins and social structural. Evolutionary based on reproductive success, however, the article…

The Essentialism Perspective on Promiscuity and the Societal Repercussions Throughout western history, there has been one main belief that has prevailed regarding men and women’s sexuality: that sexual motivation is influenced by the physiological differences between the sexes and accounts for their variances in behavior. This essentialism approach to sexuality, developed with the advancement of evolutionary psychology, which states that all living things maintain a fixed biological,…

In The Republic, Socrates discusses the idea of the traditional family and the benefits that it would have on the community to abolish it. Socrates argues that families are the source of injustice in communities and that communities can never reach full potential if families still exist. He believes that the state should generate personal and any kind of familial relations. However, the idea of abolishing the family could cripple the community and hinder vital personal and emotional connections…

The Hedgehog Erinaceous europaeus Hedgehogs are fascinating creatures! With such a small body length and only weighing a few ounces, it’s astonishing they are not categorized as rodents. What’s even weirder is that some hedgehogs eat dog food. Hedgehogs have a much shorter gestation period compared to other animals. Have you ever wondered what a hedgehog looks like? The head, body, and tail length is about 6-14 inches, and they only weigh about 14-39 ounces. The gender differences are very…
