Answer:

It has been hypothesized that infanticide exists to:

Prevent future opponents from entering the same pack for harem control and only grow the offspring of the new alpha within the herd.

Explanation:

The practice of infanticide is very common to see it in baboons and lions, where an alpha takes care of a harem, which provides a certain level of protection, but instead kills preexisting offspring and banishes young people, in order to avoid any kind of future confrontation for the control of the harem and that in addition, the females are responsible for raising only the young of the new alpha, however, it regularly happens that a new 'bachelor' with more experience in fighting or younger comes to claim the harem as his, murders the previous alpha, takes possession and repeats the aforementioned practice.

Jackrabbits living in the desert have large ears that help release body heat. Large ears are an adaptation to which is limiting
Cloud [144]

Answer:

It is the adaptation to the limiting factor temperature.

Explanation:

The presence of long ears is the most astonishing characteristic of jackrabbits. These long ears are the jackrabbits' adaptation to their native desert habitat, which helps them to cool down the temperature of their body. The ears allowed them to do so as they are thin and possess an extensive mass of blood vessels. When the temperature of the desert becomes hard to hands, the long ears of jackrabbits allow them to enhance the flow of blood via the ears by dilating its blood vessels. This dilation helps to deflect heat from the body and thus cools the creature.
