Answer:

Sand dunes are formed by the wind, it is formed usually along the beach or desert. It is formed when the air continues to blow sand into an area behind an object. It continues to grow as grains of sand get condensed. The sand can be transported to a different location by saltation, surface creeps and by suspension where it can settle along with beach and desert in order to form dunes.

What is a reproductive strategy
Bumek [7]
A reproductive strategy presents an approach of a type of an organism to reproduction and of taking care of it's offspring.  

Generaly speaking, there are two main reproductive strategies, K and R reproductive strategies.

The organisms that apply the R strategy produce a great number of small, independent offspring and when the offspring is born or hatched it's left to
try to survive on its own. This strategy is used by bacteria, many invertebrates, and reptiles.

On the other hand, the K strategy organisms produce a small number of offspring that they care of for a significant amount of time after they are born. This strategy is used mostly by mammals and birds.
