Question

which type of species typically makes up the majority of endangered species? r-selected species herbivore species generalist species k-selected species

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

K - selected species (also called K - strategists) have characteristics like long lifespan, low reproductive rate, and high parental care. They are more vulnerable to environmental changes and human impacts (like habitat loss) because their populations grow slowly and they can't recover quickly. In contrast, r - selected species reproduce rapidly, generalist species can adapt to many environments, and herbivore species' endangerment isn't as typical a majority as K - selected. So K - selected species are more likely to be the majority of endangered species.

Answer:

D. K - selected species
