Why is sexual selection usually stornger for males than females?

A. males generally accrue greater inclusive fitness through indirect fitness

B. Females have larger gametes than males

C. Females usually experience a steeper Bateman\'s gradient (I know this is wrong)

D. Males have a higher parental investment because they produce a larger number of gametes (I know this is not the answer)

Basically I\'m stuck between A and B.

Solution

The correct answer is option A.

option A - males generally accrue greater inclusive fitness through indirect fitness.

explanattion - males generally increase their fitness by mating with multiple mates, while females are on the miidle section of the range because they do not favor a particular side of the spectrum. for instance, females tend to be the choosier sex.
