what is the difference between neoteny and post development
according to my lecture
neoteny = early maturation of gonads in larva that then stops growing and never becomes an adult
post development = onset of a developmental process is delayed relative to reproductive maturation
...they sound like the same thing...are they the same thing or is there a difference. i have done a google search on this, but cant seem to find any results. any help towards clarification would be appreciated. thanks1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
