A newly discovered animal reproduces slowly. It has only one offspring each time it reproduces. Which reproductive strategy does
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

C: K Strategy

Explanation:

The best choice will be C- K strategy because this type of strategy involves greater investment from parents into their offspring. These organisms are mostly higher organisms which reproduce slowly and ensure the maximum survival of their offspring. They compete strongly with other organisms and invest more in their survival by producing fewer quality offspring that have more survival opportunities.

Example of K-selected species include  larger mammals (such as primates and horses), birds and larger plants. Unlike their opposite R-selected specie which produce large number of offspring, K selected specie are called in Equilibrium wile R-selected species are called as opportunistic.

What is the correct way to write an individual's blood pressure?
dmitriy555 [2]
Hello!

The blood pressure is supposed to be stable at all times to prevent strokes or other deadly effects. You measure the blood pressure with a sphygmomanometer around the arm and listen to the pulse. When completed, you would write the blood pressure like so: 120 over 80. If you write it any other way, it would be incorrect, so you measure the first sound first, then when the sound stopped and remember to write "over."

I hope this helped you!

I am, yours most sincerely,
