3.问答
(1) One often hears that the reason why many species resolve their contest
against mostly harmless signals is to reduce injuries and protect the
adults needed to produce next generation of offspring. What's the
problem of the hypothesis?
(2) Some species' queen of colony mated once while some species' queen mated
with several different males. If workers of these species have the
ability to lay haploid eggs, what should workers do when living in two
types of conlony headed by monogamous queen versus that headed by qween
which has mated with two or more males?
(3) It was observed that elk tended to form larger groups when foraging in
the open area far away from forest. Some scientist interpret large
group of elk as an antipredator response. However, other scientist noted
that elk only aggregate on days when wolves are absent. When wolves
presense, elk tends to be small herds. What alternative hypothesis will
you propose to explain why elk group together when foraging far away
from forest?
