The cubs are a significant barrier to reproduction when a new male coalition first takes control of a pride. Mothers of surviving cubs won't mate again until their young are at least 18 months old, but if their cubs are lost, they will mate right away.

  • Following that, males leave on their own or are driven out by other men who take control of their pride. It is common for a new male to kill all the cubs when he joins the pride in order to pass his genes on to all future cubs. The major function of males in the pride is defending the pride's territory.
  • Female lionesses will devour the cubs of other pride, but not the cubs of their own pride. The "egalitarianism" of female lions stands in stark contrast to the autocratic behavior of wolves, wild dogs, and several other species, where dominant females prevent subordinates from reproducing.
  • When a female lion gives birth, she leaves the pride and doesn't come back until the cubs are several weeks old. After that, the adult females band together to take care of and protect the young.

Why is it more important to check for errors during DNA replication than during protein synthesis?
Citrus2011 [14]

Ans.

Errors that occur during DNA replication lead to mutations, which represent permanent, heritable changes in genetic material. These errors can pass from parent cell to daughter cells and affect many generations of cells.

On the other hands, errors that occur during protein synthesis lead to formation of defected or non-functional protein. These errors cannot pass from one cell to another and affect only one cell, which requires that protein for its proper functioning.

Thus, 'it is more important to check errors during DNA replication that errors during protein synthesis.'
