When would a male be expected to improve his fitness by attempting to mate at sea rather than establishing a harem?.
Colt1911 [192]

D. A small male will do better mating at sea when suitable beaches are more common than are large, dominant males.

When small males are relatively abundant then would a male be expected to improve his fitness by attempting to mate at sea rather than establishing a harem.

The ability of an organism to reach reproductive age, find a mate, and give birth is referred to as biological fitness, sometimes known as Darwinian fitness. In essence, the number of offspring an organism has over the course of its lifespan determines its biological fitness.

Harem- A group of animals known as a harem consists of one or more males, several females, and the offspring of those females. The dominant male drives away other men and maintains the group together.

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is,

Q. When would a make be expected to improve his fitness by attempting to mate at sea rather than establishing a harem.?

A. A large, competitively dominant male will do better matting at sea when small males are relatively abundant.

B. A large, competitively dominant male will do better matting at sea when suitable beaches are more common than are large, dominant males.

C. A small male will do better mating at sea when suitable beaches are rare and successfully defended by large males.

D. A small male will do better mating at sea when suitable beaches are more common than are large, dominant males.

A new life form was discovered on Mars, one based upon Silicon instead of Carbon. Explain what properties Silicon has that allow
Vesna [10]

Group IV of the Periodic Table of the Elements contains carbon (C), silicon (Si) and several heavy metals. Carbon, of course, is the building block of life as we know it. So is it possible that a planet exists in some other solar system where silicon substitutes for carbon? Several science fiction stories feature silicon-based life-forms--sentient crystals, gruesome golden grains of sand and even a creature whose spoor or scat was bricks of silica left behind. The novellas are good reading, but there are a few problems with the chemistry.

<span>
CRYSTALLINE CREATURES? Silicon can grow into a number of lifelike structures, but its chemistry makes it unlikely that it could be the basis for alien life-forms.</span>

Indeed, carbon and silicon share many characteristics. Each has a so-called valence of four--meaning that individual atoms make four bonds with other elements in forming chemical compounds. Each element bonds to oxygen. Each forms long chains, called polymers, in which it alternates with oxygen. In the simplest case, carbon yields a polymer called poly-acetal, a plastic used in synthetic fibers and equipment. Silicon yields polymeric silicones, which we use to waterproof cloth or lubricate metal and plastic parts.
