Question
what happens to the offspring of most r-selected species in terms of offspring survival?
the majority dont even survive to adulthood
they have few offspring with great parents
they all have a very low reproductive rate
most of the few offspring reach adulthood
Brief Explanations
To determine the answer, we analyze r - selected species traits:
- R - selected species produce many offspring but provide little parental care. So, most offspring don't survive to adulthood.
- The option "They have few offspring with great parents" is incorrect as r - selected species have many offspring and little parental care.
- "They all have a very low reproductive rate" is wrong because r - selected species have high reproductive rates.
- "Most of the few offspring reach adulthood" is incorrect as r - selected species have many offspring, and most don't survive.
