Question

unit exam - populations
patterns of life on earth.

which of these is an advantage of k - selected species in stable (non - changing) environments?
little to no care of offspring
huge amounts of offspring
high parental care of offspring
small body sizes overall

Explanation:

K - selected species thrive in stable environments. They produce fewer offspring but invest more in parental care to increase offspring survival. “Little to no care” and “huge offspring” are r - selected traits. “Small body sizes” isn't a K - selected advantage; K - selected species often have larger bodies. So high parental care is the K - selected advantage here.

Answer:

high parental care of offspring
