This is a typical example of R selection life strategy. These species, including the Atlantic cod, produce a large number of offspring with a low chance of surviving to adulthood. This strategy is particularly successful in environments that are unstable. The main advantage of this strategy in changing environments is that the ''cost'' of making offspring is very low, so you the species can produce large numbers offspring, ensuring that at least some of them will survive into adulthood and continue the species.
Natural selection, in this case, favors the individuals that are able to adapt the fastest to the changing conditions.

How does sexual reproduction play an important role in variation?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Sexual reproduction plays an important role in variation such that; production of unique gametes during meiosis, and the random combination of male and female gametes upon fertilization provides a large amount of variation (option A).

<h3>What is sexual reproduction?</h3>

Sexual reproduction is the process whereby a new organism is created by combining the genetic material of two organisms.

During sexual reproduction, organisms produce gametes through a process called meiosis.

This meiosis allows genetic diversity in the unique gametes produced, which causes random combination of male and female gametes upon fertilization provides a large amount of variation.
