Why don't slow rabbits pass on many genes to the next generation?

Rabbits reproduce so fast because their genetics tell them to. Not only do rabbits breed in large numbers but their gestation period is very short.

Terms in genetics?
The link below will help you get started with this question. There are many terms:
What is the passing of traits from one generation to another?
There are many things that happen with the passing of traits from one generation to another. It is known as giving a hereditary trait.
How many genes are there in DNA?
Different species have different numbers of genes. About 1.5% of human DNA is genes - and it is estimated that there are around 23,000 protein-coding genes.
Approximately how many genes do humans has?
Humans have about 20, 000 to 25,000 genes.
Is it possible to have some genetic traits as your grandparents?
No, but many aunts and uncles have the same parents as your mother or father. They may share genes with your grandparents and you would also have genes from your grandparents.
How many species are there of rabbits?
we dont know that yet we are trying to find out/

Is eye color a inheritance?
eye colour is due to polygenic inheritance. 2 genes specify for the green/blue pigments and 2 or more genes encode for the brown pigment. the brown genes mask the blue/green genes. eye colour is purely genetic as it is not subject to environmental influences. it was originally thought that eye colour was controlled by 2 genes, but since the human genome project , it is now known that many more genes are involved.
Why are humans so lazy?
The same reason you were too lazy to think of the answer to this yourself. Many animals conserve their energy by doing minimal work. This would be a shrewed tactic if food resources were scarce and movement would waste valuble calories. The genes which promote this energy conservative behaviour would be passed on the the next generation and thus a greater proportion of the nect generation would have these genes. Hence we have a human population which is rich in energy conservation genes, or lazy genes as you put it. Why are you so judgmental?
What is the passing of traits from one generation to another?
There are many things that happen with the passing of traits from one generation to another. It is known as giving a hereditary trait.
What is different in phenotypes of an individual from those in the same species?
Phenotypes are the characteristics of the genes that are most dominant, and can represent themselves. Species have many different genes for example, you dont have the exact same genes as your best friend, and thus, producing different phenotypes which is why you look different... However, you do have may similar genes that make you part of that species.
How many genes needed to code one protein part into a protein such as hemoglobin?
4 by the way i just guessed this so dont use it.
How many genes are there in DNA?

How many genes does a rhesus macaque have?
if u have a big d i c k dont search up this question if ur a girl get a d i c k -_-;
How are rabbits in dangered?
Rabbits aren't endangered There are to many of them they are pests
How many rabbits are in the world?
For breeds there are 40 main breeds and about that many more cross breed ones too. but for a number total i dont know, but i know that they are not extincted. Total Land Surface Area 148,300,000 sq km I would guesstimate between 373,763,000-1,052,010,750 million rabbits
