Jet streams are air currents blowing high above the Earth. These air currents are in the highest part of the atmosphere. Their speeds usually range from 129 to 225 kilometers per hour or 80 to 140 miles per hour. Jet streams are faster in winter when the temperature differences between tropical, temperate, and polar air currents are greater.

At most of the times in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, there are two jet streams: a subtropical jet stream centered at about 30 degrees latitude and a polar-front jet stream whose position varies with the boundary between polar and temperate air. During summer in the Northern Hemispheres, a reverse jet stream blows toward the west in tropical high altitudes.

Which pair of terms most accurately describes life history traits for a stable population of wolves? A. semelparous; r -selected

Lera25 [3.4K]

The correct option is (D) iteroparous; K -selected

Iteroparous organisms are the organisms that reproduce multiple times.

<h3>What is Semelparity and Iteroparity?</h3>

Semelparity and iteroparity are the two different reproductive strategies available to living beings.
Iteroparous species have multiple reproductive cycles throughout their lifetimes, while semelparous species have just one reproductive cycle before they die.
Death that occurs after reproduction is part of a bigger strategy in really semelparous animals that also entails maximizing reproduction at the expense of future survival.
There will always be some iteroparous individuals who die between their first and second reproductive episodes, but unless they exhibit symptoms of a state of programmed death after reproduction, they are not termed semelparous.
