Reproductive Strategies
Reproductive strategies refer to the behavioral, morphological, and physiological adaptations that organisms use to achieve reproductive success.
Side-blotched Lizards
A species of lizard known for its color variation and social behavior, often studied for evolutionary biology insights.
Selection
The process by which certain traits become more or less common in a population due to their effect on the reproductive success of their bearers; also referred to as natural selection.
