中文简介:
复制既不简单也不容易,也不公平。雌性通常承担着更大的生育和养育子女的负担。生殖策略可以简化为男性的两种主要策略和女性的两种主要策略:男性通常参与精子竞争或身体竞争,而女性则从男性那里获取资源,或者为后代寻找最佳的男性基因。强奸和暴力,作为繁殖策略,在少数物种中发生,但暴力行为在类人猿中尤其普遍,可能是因为这些物种的卵非常稀少。在猩猩中,强奸很常见。对大猩猩来说,杀婴是生殖暴力的一种常见形式,雄性黑猩猩经常打架,殴打雌性。
课程简介: Reproduction is not simple or easy, nor is it fair. Females often bear a larger reproductive burden of child bearing and child rearing. Reproductive strategies can be simplified into two primary strategies for males and two for females: males often either engage in sperm competition or physical competition while females strategize to get resources from males, or to find the best male genes for the offspring. Rape and violence, as reproductive strategies, occur in few species, but violence is especially prevalent among the great apes, probably because eggs are so scarce in these species. Among orangutans, rape is common. For gorillas, infanticide is a common form of reproductive violence, and male chimpanzees regularly fight each other and batter females.
