Question

An elephant produces 6 young in a 90-year lifespan. If every descendant survived, what would be the theoretical outcome from a single pair?

पर्याय

• 6 million descendants in 750 years

• 19 million descendants in 90 years

• 19 million descendants in 750 years

• 6 million descendants in 100 years

Answer 1

Despite its slow reproductive rate of 6 young in a 90-year lifespan, a single pair of elephants would theoretically leave 19 million descendants in 750 years if all survived, illustrating enormous fertility.
