Assess the relationship between sexual selection and human reproductive behaviour. (24 marks) The nature of sexual selection is derived from the evolutionary theory. This suggests that the people who we choose to have sex with has been born into us and is an innate response we have.

In the novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time by Mark Haddon‚ I interpret the main character Christopher as contradictory. He is shown to be a really smart kid‚ but he’s also pretty clueless in other subjects. He’s a really nice kid‚ but he can be really rude and insensitive.

He knows his prime numbers‚ explains how Marilyn vos Savant
