Question
What reproductive strategy involves parasites exploiting
the parental care of other species?Solution
Brood parasitism is a strategy where parasites lay their eggs in the nests of other birds or within their own species, leading the host to unwittingly raise the parasite’s young. This adaptation allows parasites to conserve resources that would otherwise go into parental care.
