What type of mating system requires the female to raise the young alone? a. polyandry b. monogamy c. polygyny. d. hermaphroditism

OpenStudy (hari5719):

i think polygamy

OpenStudy (abhisar):

no, it should be hermaphroditism.

OpenStudy (hari5719):

oh ya i guess he is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm..

OpenStudy (abhisar):

A hermaphrodite is an organism that has reproductive organs normally associated with both male and female sexes

OpenStudy (hari5719):

that is certainly right so it can raise the young alone !!

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Polygyny/Polygamy means the system where a male is allowed to marry more than one female.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your saying a hermaphrodite can raise a baby alone because it has a female and male parts?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

yep !

OpenStudy (hari5719):

it can mate with it self

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Polyandry is same thing for females that is they are allowed to have more than one husbands.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Monogamy means when only one partner is allowed during the whole life time.

OpenStudy (abhisar):
