If the costs of a behavior was 6 offspring and the benefits were 12 offspring, should a great-grandmother assist in the behavior? Use Hamilton’s rule to evaluate
Homework Answers
According to Hamilton's rule :
Positive relatedness is observed when to evaluate the altruism behavior which is observed when b is higher than the c.
b is benefits offspring number and c is cost offspring number
From the above question we can observe that b = 12 offsprings and c = 6 offsprings
b>c (12>6) . This shows that great-grandmother assist in the behavior because of positive relatedness
Add Answer to:
If the costs of a behavior was 6 offspring and the benefits were
12 offspring, should...

Allele Z codes for a cooperative behavior among full siblings. Recipients of this behavior receive a benefit of seven fitness units, and the behavior costs the donor three fitness units. Use Hamilton’s rule to determine whether allele Z will spread in the population.

Allele Z codes for a cooperative behavior among full siblings. Recipients of this behavior receive a benefit of seven fitness units, and the behavior costs the donor three fitness units. Use Hamilton’s rule to determine whether allele Z will spread in the population. Show your calculations and include the equation for Hamilton's rule. Also include a concluding sentence/statement that explains your conclusion in terms of Hamilton's rule and fitness.

Suppose the marginal costs of reading are constant at $6 per hour, while the marginal benefits of reading decline (over time) as more reading is performed. In particular, suppose the following table contains the marginal benefit associated with various levels of hours spent reading. Time Spent Reading (Hours) Marginal Benefits (Dollars per hour) Assume the marginal benefit curve is a straight line through the two points described in the table On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol)...
