4.6 billion years ago, the dust in the solar nebula accumulated to form the earth, and part of the material of the solar nebula became water and gas on the earth, which became the unique conditions for life on the earth.
Organisms on Earth have evolved over millions of years to form their own unique survival strategies, and in order to survive, the miracle of animal life is shown in the process of rapid adaptation and reproduction.
On the earth, life is reproducing in various ways, including humans, but in this process, different organisms have different ways of reproduction, human beings win the competition for survival with absolute superiority and become the overlord of the earth, while other species have different reproductive strategies in order to reproduce.
Scientists have found that the creature on Earth that has been mating for the longest time is the dark thyzore, while the creature that has the most mating times in a single day is the lion.
1. The longest-mating creature on Earth.
A team of Australian scientists has discovered two new species, both of which belong to the quoll family, namely the dark quoll and the lion policeshrew.
Ecologists from the University of Queensland in Australia studied the mating time of the two animals and found that the dark marsal shrew mated for up to 14 hours at a time, with an overall duration of two to three weeks, making it the longest-mating creature on the planet.
The Grey Quosh is a type of quoll endemic to Australia, and they have a very short estrus period, only two weeks a year, but during these two weeks, the female will mate with the male for up to 14 hours, and then for two to three weeks after mating, the female will quietly leave, and since the Pocket Quow is a nocturnal animal, the female will sneak away at night for two to three weeks.
The mating time of the lion bandws is longer, the male will mate quickly above the belly of the female, and the mating time of the lion bandul is longer, lasting about a day, but during this day, the male will mate with the female quoll about five times, each time for a day, so that the overall time is two to three weeks.
During these two to three weeks, the female quolls will also quietly leave, this type of reproduction is also unique to quolls, this mode of reproduction is called "innate reproduction", the uterus of the female quoll will have an active uterine opening, and only the sperm of the male quoll can enter the uterus of the female quoll, so as to ensure that the sperm in the uterus is the best.
2. Diversity and adaptability of biological reproductive strategies.
The diversity and adaptability of biological reproductive strategies is a wonderful manifestation of the evolution of life, and each species has a unique way of ensuring the continuation of future generations.
Penguins living in the polar regions, because the breeding season coincides with the polar summer, so in order to let the cubs survive in the harsh environment, they will have the male penguins take care of the cubs after the cubs are born, and the female penguins will go to find food, so that they can bring food to the cubs in the shortest possible time.
Humpback whales in the equatorial region are another way of breeding, the female humpback whale will give birth to cubs in the waters of Antarctica, and after the cubs are born, the female humpback whale will take the cubs through the equatorial region to the Arctic region, so that the cubs do not need to be exposed to the sun in the equatorial region, and it is easier to survive.
The diversity and adaptability of biological reproduction strategies are the result of long-term evolution and evolution of organisms, and the reproduction mode of organisms is also affected by various factors, including the body size, living environment and living habits of organisms, and the behavior and ecological habits of animals are also the focus of scientists' research, which helps to better understand the operation of the biological world, as well as the protection and maintenance of biodiversity.
3. Protecting life on Earth.
The Earth is the only celestial body in the universe where life is known, with a hydrosphere, atmosphere, and magnetic field, and is home to millions of species of life.
According to statistics, more than 800,000 species of organisms on the earth have become extinct, and thousands of species of organisms are extinct every year due to human reasons.
As the overlord of the earth, human beings should cherish and respect the right to survival of other species, and protect biodiversity and ecological balance, which is the responsibility of human beings, and scientists have never stopped their research work on biology, they are not only concerned about the reproduction mode of organisms, but also concerned about the survival status of organisms, and actively make their own contributions to the protection of organisms.
It is because of the hard work of scientists that many endangered species have been protected and bred, successfully avoiding the danger of extinction, and humanity should learn from scientists and do their part to protect the life on Earth.
epilogue
All creatures on the earth are our "partners", they have made their due contribution to the ecological environment of the earth, and human beings should not destroy the ecological environment and lead to the extinction of organisms.
We should do our part to protect biodiversity so that every living thing on the planet can live in a peaceful environment.
