The males with superior detection and flying abilities are most likely to reach the female beetle first which leads to a selection for genetically-advantageous males. [6] In most species, pheromones are released by the non ...

    Additionally, the time it takes for pregnant women (any stage of pregnancy) to react to a translational disturbance is not significantly different than that of non-pregnant women. [42] This alludes to some sort of stability mechanism that allow pregnant women to compensate for the changes they experience during pregnancy.
