Document Summary

Cycles also depend on sex (female or male), hormones. All animals have very limited reproduction compared to humans. Reproductive cycles occur bc favorable environmental conditions suitable for breeding. Daylength: classic driver , can regulate testis growth, biological clocks!! Climate change is advancinc timing in reproduction in birds, insects and plants. Mismatch where different organisms are adapting differently in time compared to other organisms. Problem: many organisms use the breeding time of other organisms as social cues. Seasonality drives a lot of things in humans but we don"t know exactly why l o l. Offaction: chemical signals used for mate attraction or coordination of reproductive behaviour. Think about the input, output and energy yield.
