You study sperm competition in beetles and conduct the following experiment. You sample a population that is effectively monogamous, as chances of meeting more than one mating partner in nature are extremely low

In the lab, you pair multiple individuals to create a polygamous mating system, but you also maintain a monogamous control line. Would you expect sperm competition in the polygamous line to increase, decrease, or remain the same relative to the monogamous control line (provided there was heritable variance for this trait in the population)? What will be an ideal response?
