Females typically have a greater investment in offspring due to biological factors, such as gestation and lactation, which require significant energy and resources. This investment also extends to nurturing and protecting their young, enhancing the offspring's chances of survival. Additionally, evolutionary strategies often lead females to be more selective in mate choice, ensuring that their limited reproductive opportunities yield the best genetic outcomes for their offspring. These factors collectively contribute to a higher parental investment in females.
A mule, some are males and some will be born females. Males are called Mules while females are known as Hinnies. It is believed that a when a stallion horse breeds a female donkey, the offspring will be a female, however, our herd Donkey bred a female pony and the offspring was a female. Keep in mind that male mules are more common than hinny mules.
No. Male and females are both born, but since they are hybrids they cannot have offspring.
The offspring of a female donkey (a jenny or jennet) and a male horse (stallion) is called a hinny. Hinnies are much rarer than are mules (the offspring of a jack (male donkey) and mare (female horse)).
A mule. Same for both genders, though all males and some females are infertile.
A Mares' offspring is called a "Foal".
The cost of reproduction is different for males and females because they have different biological roles in reproduction. Females invest more energy and resources in producing eggs and carrying offspring, while males typically invest less in producing sperm. This difference in investment leads to different costs associated with reproduction for males and females.
yes.
Male seahorses carry the offspring, not the females.
reproductive
Females transmit an X chromosome to their offspring, as they carry two X chromosomes (XX). Males contribute either an X or a Y chromosome, determining the sex of the offspring (XX for female, XY for male).
So that they can unite as one to produce offspring.
The females do the rearing of the offspring. In fact, some male animals are known for eating their own offspring, like Lions. Males are usually highly aggressive to their offspring.

Females can produce offspring. That's about it.

Yes brine shrimp can have intercourse. Males and females can produce sexually, but also females can produce offspring asexually (parthenogenesis). Females can live up tp three months and produce up to 300 offspring every 4 days. Any other questions just ask Symantha Bollinger.
