By definition, wouldn’t we just say that the pregnant partner in a species is the female? Is there another step I’ve missed?
In: Biology
By definition, the female partner is the one that provides the egg for sexual reproduction, and the male provides the sperm.
In seahorses, instead of the egg being laid out onto a rock or held inside the female, it is implanted into a sac on the male body, where it is fertilized by the male directly.
