Antlers are generally only found on male deer in other species of deer. Females with higher-than-normal testosterone levels, on the other hand, can grow antlers.

<h3>Why Do Deer Grow Antlers?</h3>

Antlers are grown by male deer to lure female deer for mating. Females will be shown a display as the antlers are developing during mating season, with each male attempting to become the most dominating.

Deer utilize their antlers to protect themselves from predators and other deer. When deer attack each other, their antlers might lock together, forcing the deer to starve to death.

haploid (n) or triploid (3n)

Explanation:

If none of the chromosomes separate during meiosis, the resulting gametes will either lack chromosome or have diploid number (2n) of chromosome instead of a haploid number.

If an egg without chromosome (o) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will have haploid number (n) of chromosome.

If an egg with diploid number of chromosome (2n) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will be a triploid with 3n number of chromosome.
