Question
typically, the offspring of these species survive well into adulthood.
which of the species below would best fit the type of population that follows the \a\ survivorship curve shown in the image and described in the paragraph here?
cockroach
ant
human
song bird
Survivorship curve A shows high survival rates into adulthood (most offspring survive to later life stages). Humans have a Type I survivorship curve (high survival early, more deaths at old age), unlike cockroaches/ants (Type III, many offspring, high early mortality) or songbirds (Type II, relatively constant mortality). So human best fits curve A.
