A species with high reproductive output, short generation time, and no parental care best fits which life-history strategy?
- A
K-selected — favored at stable carrying capacity
- B
Type II survivorship across all habitats
- C
Equilibrium-selected — favored at zero growth
- Dcheck_circle
r-selected — favored in unstable, unpredictable environments
Explanation
r-selected: high fecundity, low parental investment, opportunistic colonizers (insects, weeds). K-selected: low fecundity, high investment, near carrying capacity (elephants, oaks).
