Answer:

The wrong statement is C. <em>Individuals with Type Il survivorship exhibit high survivorship throughout </em>

their life cycle.

Explanation:

Different species have survival curves differently shaped. In general terms, there are three different survival curves.

  • Type I. Organisms do not tend to die when they are young or middle-aged, but they do when they are old. These species, in general, have a few descendants and parents provide much parental care to ensure their progeny survival. Typical of K selected species.
  • Type II. Organisms that have more or less the same probabilities of dying in each age interval. These organisms can also have a few descendants and they can provide significant parental care.
  • Type III. Only a few individuals survive their first period of life or their firsts years. However, the lucky ones to reach a certain age generally have a long life. These organisms have a lot of descendants at the same time, but they do not provide much parental care. Typical of r selected species.
