This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Wyatt Ch 6 Bhvl Ecology, mammals like deers and gorillas because only females can produce offspring and provide milk to young., reverse sexual polymorphism for which females are more colorful & 50% biggerthan males, one male mating with several females, with females usually raising the offspring which drives Sexual selection, approximately 9% of bird species, including weaver bird in habitats where food is abundent, one male mating with several females, with females usually raising the offspring includes approximately 9% of bird species, including weaver bird, Optimal distance at which Crows should drop Whelk (experiment) is approx. 5 meters high large whelks only because they are easier to break and have more to eat on the inside., it addresses the behavior according to how it benefits an individual's survival and/or reproduction (over its lifetime) with foraging effeciency vs. survival, Wattled Jacana birds for which Females lay more eggs than they can brood so they fight for territories that contain up to 4 males that will brood and watch the young., cooperative breeding in mammals, when both parents are needed for the survival of the offspring examples include 90% of bird species: both parents needed to feed offsping., mammals including meerkats, increasing sibling survivorship in harsh environments where it is difficult for individuals to have their own mate & nest, one male mating with several females, with females usually raising the offspring includes mammals like deers and gorillas, mongamy involving One male and one female mating and raising offspring together, when both parents are needed for the survival of the offspring examples include invertebrate:Burying beetles bury carcasses and lay eggs within it and then use it to feed offspring, it addresses the behavior according to how it benefits an individual's survival and/or reproduction (over its lifetime) with survival, Direct Fitness = number of offspring directly produced for which in diploid species, "r" (relatedness) = 0.50, Sexual selection in which Males have ways of attracting females, including colorful patterns, strong smells, adornments, and songs/sounds, Great Tits (a type of chickadeee) typically have 8-9 nestlings in their nest, when both parents are needed for the survival of the offspring examples include mammal example: foxes, male can contribute by bringing meat to the family
