Discussion

  • Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
  • abj has been applied since related species show acceleration; foetal development was ignored because of absence of its combination with abj. The effect is probably very small.

Facts

  • Longest known pregnancy among fish (Ref: Wiki)
