1.In primate species that are not pair-bonded, we can predict that
Group of answer choices
females will provide more care for offspring than will males.
neither sex will care for offspring.
males will provide more care for offspring than will females.
both sexes will care for offspring equally.
2.Which of the following statements is true?
Group of answer choices
Patterns of courtship, mate choice, and parental care vary greatly within the primate order.
The same factors limit male and female reproductive success.
Studies of primate reproductive behavior cannot help us understand how evolutionary forces shaped the reproductive strategies of our hominin ancestors.
The reproductive strategies of living primates are not influenced by their phylogenetic heritage as mammals.
3.Which type of social group has the largest relative testis size?
Group of answer choices
pair bonded
one female, multimale
one-male, multifemale
multimale, multifemale
Ans 1-) Correct option is female will provide more care for offspring than will males.
In the primate groups , female give more parental care than males as males have to fulfill other responsibilities such as defending the territlry etc
Ans 2-)Correct option is pattern of courtship , mate choice and parental care vary greatly within the primate order.
Because of mate choice copying. It is due to social learning , which gives knowledge about potential mates after the observations of behaviour in mating as well as courtship of close conspecifics.
Ans 3-) Correct option is multimale ,multifemale
Either breeding in seson or non season , both the species have
relatively larger size testis.
Arthopoids includes groups which are both multimales and
multifemales. As compared to body weight,they have greater size of
testis because seminiferous tubule which is present in greater
volume produces spermatozoa in large number for the reason that
sperm competition alwayz prefer male as they can produces maximum
number of gamates .
