The correct option is (B) There are energy constraints.

the primary limiting factor that determines why no female animal can produce a very large number of very large eggs is there are energy constraints.

<h3>What is the main restriction that prevents any female mammal from having an extremely high egg production?</h3>
  • Environmental influences influence reproductive decisions, which results in the natural selection of eggs of a particular size.
  • Natural selection favors the size of the egg that is most fit for the parent in a given habitat.
  • A fundamental limitation is the finite amount of energy that may be stored in a few large or several little eggs.
  • Energy constraints were the principal topic of early models of optimal reproduction. Such models show that females will lay larger eggs in less advantageous circumstances if this allocation enhances the performance of offspring.
  • Additionally, a negative relationship between egg size and clutch size should be observed when females' energy availability differs slightly between individuals.

WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IF<br> ALL THE HERBIVORES IN<br> A FOOD WEB<br> DISAPPEAR?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Well, if all the herbivores disappeared, multiple things could occur. Without anyone keeping plants in check, plants may grow too abundant and may be harmful to the food web. Not only that, but predators that eat herbivors might starve without food. On the plus side, natural resources like water would increase without herbivores drinking/using it.

I hope this helps :)

What enzyme or function is being affected in mutant (a), causing many mismatched base pairs?
igor_vitrenko [27]
DNA polymerase is the enzyme that is responsible for adding correct nucleotide pairs to new and growing DNA strands. Mismatched base pair errors will occur if this enzymes is not able to function optimally. There are other system that work DNA polymerase, these are proof reading system and mismatch repair system. Less than optimum function of these system will lead to uncorrected mismatched base pairs.
