​the production of sterile mules by interbreeding between female horses (mares) and male donkeys (jacks) is an example of
insens350 [35]

Answer:

reduced hybrid fertility

Explanation

The formation of mules  from the cross between female horses (mares) and male donkeys (jacks) is an example of reduced fertility because the mules are sterile and they cannot give birth to babies.

Reason:

Because mule cannot produce sperms. This has to do with his genetics. A mule has 63 chromosomes in total. He gets 32 chromosomes from his mom (that is a horse) and 31 chromosomes from his Dad (that is a donkey). As we know, it is very important for reproduction that chromosomes hould be present in two sets with equal numbers.

To reproduce he needs equal number of chromosomes because we know during meiosis chromosomes segregate and half number goes in daughter cells. But in case of mules he has an extra chromosome due to which he cannot undergo correct meiosis and produce sperms. That is ahy he stays sterile throughout his life. This is called reduced hybrid fertility

Hope it helps!

These bats are very social bats and stay in huge colonies ranging from one hundred thousand to one million bats, both male and female included, and during migration their numbers are higher. Since they live in tight knit communities but are suspicious of outsiders, they are one of the most secretive specie of bat, preferring to keep their colonies and hide out. These bats can live over twenty years.

The largest danger and predator of straw-colored fruit bats are humans. In some areas, such as West Africa, straw-colored fruit bats are hunted and consumed for their meat because they are considered a delicacy.
