In some social insects, there are individuals that do not mate or may not be fertile but help look after other members of their group. Which statement regarding this situation is true?
◦ Natural selection cannot act on the genes of nonreproducers since they do not leave offspring.
◦ The ultimate cause of this behavior is the need to keep their group safe.
◦ Lack of mating is an agonistic behavior.
◦ By protecting relatives, the nonreproducers increase the probability that their genes will be passed to the next generation.
