<span>There are two types of reproductive strategies: r and k
r- strategy is the type of organism that makes alot of babies. They have limited to no parent care. They also have a high death rate, but matures rapidly. The growth curve would be exponential like X^2.
For example: Think r for RATS because even if you think you killed all the rats, there are constantly making more.
k-strategy is the type of organism that makes a single or few babies. The give alot of attention/parent care. They mature slow, and low death rate. The growth curve is sigmuodial. The have a limited to how much species live in that environment called the carrying capacity. Carrying capacity = maximum of # of population within an environment (food, living space, etc).
For example: Think K for Kangaroo. </span>
The Electoral College (not collage) is a process of a selection of electors that have a meeting and vote for vice president and president, so yeah, you can say its a group of people. The answer is TRUE
Whips in Congress are on both sides (Republican and Democrat) and their main function is to make sure their party's congressmen vote alike and together on an issue.
Abstract
The distribution of wealth in the world is manifested by the polarization of a rich North and a poor South. Is the North-South conflict increasing or decreasing, and does it depend on such variables as major power conflict, intra-Northern conflict, and world prosperity, as some schools of thought maintain? Focusing on these questions from a leadership-long cycle perspective suggests several hypotheses about the interrelationships between global economic growth, Northern antagonism, and North-South conflict. The effect of conflict on growth is also examined. Generating data on world economic growth and major power conflict, intra-Northern conflict, and North-South conflict for the period from 1870 to 1992, vector auto-regression analysis is used to test new hypotheses. Results provide considerable support for the new hypotheses, provide mixed support for the previous arguments, and show that the relationship between world economic growth and conflict is not the same before and after World War II.
