In sexual reproduction, the genetic material of two individuals is combined to produce genetically diverse offspring that differ from their parents. Fertilization and meiosis alternate in sexual life cycles. What happens between these two events depends upon the organism. The process of meiosis, the division of the contents of the nucleus that divides the chromosomes among gametes, reduces the chromosome number by half, while fertilization, the joining of two haploid gametes, restores the diploid condition. There are three main categories of life cycles in eukaryotic organisms: diploid-dominant, haploid-dominant, and alternation of generations
Answer:It is to ensure that a good percentage of offspring survive
Explanation: As with most organisms, there is a good chance that not all offspring will survive, due to factors such as limited resources, predation, etc. Thus certain measures have to be put into place by the parents to ensure a good chance at survival for their offspring. In this case, the eggs that are widely spread out are seen as sacrificial ones, because the parents will not be able to fully care for them and provide resources for them and the ones which were laid in the nest. They will also act as offerings for any predator on thee hunt. All of this will greatly increase the chance of survival for the eggs which were laid in the nest and will receive parental care .
