Meerkats are small desert mammals that live in groups of 20–50 individuals. You observe one meerkat standing upright on a stump, looking around, while other meerkats forage for food. You hypothesize that this is an example of kin selection. What additional information would you need to know to evaluate your hypothesis

Answer:

If the look like the same specie, do they seen similar?

Step-by-step explanation:

If all the meerkats look similar, that is, they have the same color, shape, some general characteristics, so the behavior that they present are part of the community, meanwhile some of them are searching for food, other act as the guardians for predators or a possible danger for the family, so each one acts with an specific role.

Hope this info is useful
