'''Sexual dimorphism''', sometimes known as '''severe gonochorism''', is the distinct differences between the sexes within a species. A species with high sexual dimorphism has very noticeable difference between e.g. males and females. For example, the irish elk had such high sexual dimorphism that it was maladaptive, possibly being a major contributing factor in the extinction of the species. | '''Sexual dimorphism''', sometimes known as '''severe gonochorism''', is the distinct differences between the sexes within a species.
