Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The dominant female's exclusive access to mates means that the reproductive success of the other females in the group will be impacted, as they must wait for an opportunity to mate. This means that the dominant female will likely have higher reproductive success than the other females in the group, given that she can mate whenever she wants. Therefore, choice A, reproductive success, is the best option. Choices B, C, and D are not directly impacted by the exclusivity of the dominant female's access to mates.
