I mean I understand why, but it just seems weird calling them mating cycles
Yeah but i guess you also call the connectors male and female, so its just lore accurate lol
Follow-up question:
Do we still consider the cycles successful if they successfully… “connect” but they don’t produce offspring?
If long protein chains have been exchanged I’d say it’s a success
If you can think of a simpler way I’d like to hear it
I would equate “offspring” with “conduction of electricity” so no, that would not be considered successful if its only seated but not electrically connected.
