Question
natural selection favors traits that allow organisms to survive and, therefore pass on those traits to the next generation. sexual selection, on the other hand, is a pressure that favors traits that result in a higher chance of finding a mate. if organisms with sexually favored traits have a higher chance of mating, those traits will be passed down to future generations - shifting the population’s traits over time. this form of selection stems from one gender’s preference (usually females) for particular traits in their mates. males who have characteristics that are desirable to females are more likely to mate and produce offspring. select which of the following is/are example(s) of sexual selection. click on each of the letters to read more about each image.
Sexual selection involves traits that increase mating - success. Male deer with large antlers may be more attractive to females, peacocks with vibrant plumage are favored by peahens, and male beetles with large horns can win mating opportunities. These are all examples where one sex's preference for certain traits in the other sex drives the selection.
