Question

Directions- Write internal or external fertilization then explain

Answer 1

External fertilization

In this type of fertilization, the female lays numerous eggs and they are fertilized externally by the males that ‘pours’ its sperm on the eggs.

Explanation:

While laying of many eggs gives an increased chance of diversity in the population, many offspring don't make it to maturity due to low parent care. There is, therefore, more wastage of reproductive energy compared to internal fertilization.

On the other hand, in internal fertilization, the egg is fertilized inside of the female and develops into a young organism before it is birthed. Even though there are fewer offspring produced, the more parental care they receive gives them an increased chance of survival. There is also low reproductive energy loss.
