I am considering 2 ques as the 1st question asked as ques 1 is not clearly visible. it has been cut from the picture.
2.The graph shows a k-selected species which is density independent.
K-selected species are the species whose population remain stable and they produce low number of offsprings and are characterized by long-gestation period and long-life spans. Their population fluctuate around “k” which is the carrying capacity of their environment. The graph shows that the population is relatively stable over time and is fluctuating around K. hence, the species shown is indeed K-selected species.
Also, this species is independent of density as there population is relatively stable over time with slight fluctuation.
Hence, correct encircle would be on option (a) and (d).
of all the living and non-living elements that interact with it (abiotic factors) is called: a...
According to Robert Trivers, why are men generally larger and more physically aggressive than women? Because women are more reproductively “valuable” than men, hence competition for mates is fiercer among men Because men invest more heavily in reproduction than women Because men secrete more testosterone Trivers’ theory does not speculate on the origin of the sex difference in size and physical aggression Although some women are interested in casual sex (short-term mating), research has suggested that there are differences in...
need help with this .. From the pages 571-587 attached below. 1a) Suppose a population of guppies was infected with a parasite. In that population a mutation results in a parasite resistant genotype that spreads through the population through natural selection. A subsequent mutation in the parasite results in a genotype that is unaffected by the newly evolved resistant guppy genotype. What is the name of the hypothesis that explains this host parasite “arms race”.? 1b) What is this name...
