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.

When large objects vibrate, what kinds of notes do they produce?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Different things make different vibrations when they hit, and that's why you hear high notes and low notes. Things that vibrate quickly make small waves in the air, and that sounds to you like a high-pitched note. Things that vibrate slowly make longer waves in the air, that sound to you like a low-pitched note.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Glucose is virtually the sole fuel for the human brain, except during prolonged starvation. The brain lacks fuel stores, thus requires a continuous supply of glucose. It consumes about 120 g daily which corresponds to an energy input of 420 kcal (1760 KJ), accounting for some 60% of the utilization of glucose by the whole body in the resting state.
