Answer:
The K-selection reproductive strategy maximizes the survival of offspring by producing <u>few offspring with high levels of parental care.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Depending on how many offsprings members of a species produce and how much care they invest in them, we can divide species into two categories:
- r-organisms. These organisms produce many offspring, sometimes even thousands of them. They live in unpredictable, dangerous environments with a lot of predators. This is why most of their young die. It's important for at least some of them to survive so that they can continue reproducing and keep the species alive. The parents don't invest much care into their young. Some examples of these species are mice, rabbits, weeds, and bacteria.
- K-organisms. These organisms are the opposite of r-organisms. They live in more stable environments, which guarantees that their lifespan will be longer. This is why it's not necessary for them to produce many offspring. Parents invest a lot more care into their young. Some examples of these species are humans, elephants, horses, and primates.
Based on this information, we can conclude that the K-selection reproductive strategy maximizes the survival of offspring by producing few offspring with high levels of parental care.
Ecosystem is interconnected of living things
Answer:
The correct answer is option d. "All of the above".
Explanation:
A species is defined as a group of similar living organisms, constituting the basic unit of taxonomic rank of an organism. In Biology an hybrid is considered a species. It doesn't matter if the hybrid comes from combining the qualities of two organisms of different breeds, varieties or species Infertile hybrids such as mules and ligers are considered species as well.
Answer:
areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- Yes, because people's eyes move during sleep, and this stimulates the rods and cones.
- No, because rods and cones only convert light energy into electrical signals.
- No, because rods and cones never produce electrical signals.
- Yes, because the rods and cones are reproducing images that are then sent to the brain.
Answer:
No, because rods and cones only convert light energy into electrical signals.
Explanation:
The rod and cone cells are the photoreceptor cells present on the retina of the eye which receives the physical stimulus in the form of light and then converts the light energy into the electrical energy which is sent to the brain.
When we dream, our remains closed and no light is able to enter the eye as a result of which the rods and cones do not send the signals to the brain.
Thus, the selected options are correct.
