Question

Red-eyed tree frog eggs can hatch up to two days earlier than average when they detect vibrations. However, if they hatch more than two days earlier than expected due to vibrations, the embryos are typically not developed enough to survive outside of the egg. Explain how natural selection inhibited frog eggs from hatching any earlier than two days before expected hatching. Explain your answer in 1–2 sentences.

Answer 1

My guess is that red-eyed tree frogs hatched early due to vibrations in fear of being eaten by predators. However due to them dying regardless of their early hatch, natural selection ran it’s course again and stopped them from hatching early.
