In many or most animals, females are larger than males. most animals are insects and in many insects, females tend to be much la

rger than males because they are under strong selection for producing large numbers of eggs, and larger females can produce more eggs. is this an example of sexual selection?

The  above is  not  an  example  of   sexual  selection  because  sexual  selection  is  about differential success  in  acquiring males.In  sexual  selection  one  biological  sex  chose mates  of  other   sex  to  mate with. and  compete  with  members  of  the  same  sex for  access of  members  of  opposite  sex

<span>This type of scenario is not an example of sexual selection. Sexual selection is really just about the differential success that is found when someone or something is trying to acquire a mate.</span>

Which best describes the offspring of protists?
Hunter-Best [27]

Options found elsewhere:

-always genetically identical to one parent

-always genetically identical to both parents

-never genetically identical to one parent

-sometimes genetically different than both parents

Answer:

-sometimes genetically different than both parents

Explanation:

Protists are eukaryotes that cannot be classed as animals, plants, or fungi. They are quite diverse. Examples include amoeba, plasmodium, and slime mould.

Because they are so diverse, protists also have very different modes of reproduction. Some protists undergo asexual reproduction, where they simply make a copy of themselves without a mate. Others undergo sexual reproduction.

Therefore, the only option that can be correct is "-sometimes genetically different than both parents" .

If they were always genetically identical to one parent or both parents, that would mean that sexual reproduction could not be possible. If they were never genetically identical to one parent, that would mean that asexual reproduction could not be taking place.
