Sagot :

A. The Lion tailed macaques will of course reproduce with pother lion tail macaques!:)

Answer:

The answer is A other lion tailed macaques

Explanation:

As per Darwin's theory, combination of chromosomes from two same species helps in promoting the same characteristics of the species. Besides, these lion tailed macaques are becoming endangered. To increase their population,  it has to mate with the same species namely the lion tailed macaque and not any other monkey species.

If it reproduces with other macaques, any old world monkeys or any monkey species, the next generation would not be having the main characteristic features that is unique to the old tailed macaque. It could be the silver white mane that surrounds the head, special cheek pouches to store food or the black colored face.

Hence, we can say that for the survival of the  lion tailed macaque, it reproduces with its own kind.
