because it is an organism
Why do fish produce high numbers of offspring?
some eggs are eaten or babies dont survive
Do clams produce high numbers of offspring?
Yes, especially the zebra clam living in the locks in the Mississippi river.
Why is the number of offspring produced by fishes and frogs higher it is in mammals?
Frogs and fish have extremely high mortality rates which requires the production of large numbers of eggs so that a few survive. Their eggs and offspring are generally unprotected, and rely on instinct for much or their early survival. Mammals produce small numbers of offspring that develop in utero, and are cared for, protected and trained for an extended period of time before they are required to fend for themselves.

What evidence is there that vertebrates produce high snd low numbers of offspring?
because some vertebrates that have high offs doesnt drink many milk so her bones break when they have many babys.
What are the characteristics of a r-strategists?
¨Produce numerous offspring at once ¨Short gestation period ¨Less resources spent per offspring ¨Offspring hatch or born capable of surviving on their own ¨Have small bodies ¨Mature fast and have short lifespan ¨Able to disperse offspring widely ¨Death rate generally not correlated with density of population ¨Population size fluctuates and not stable ¨Occupies a generalist role in ecology ¨Main idea is to use a high reproductive rate to high mortality rate ¨Produce numerous offspring at once ¨Short gestation period ¨Less resources spent per offspring ¨Offspring hatch or born capable of surviving on their own ¨Have small bodies ¨Mature fast and have short lifespan ¨Able to disperse offspring widely ¨Death rate generally not correlated with density of population ¨Population size fluctuates and not stable ¨Occupies a generalist role in ecology ¨Main idea is to use a high reproductive rate to high mortality rate
What is a term that describes why some individuals produce more offspring than others?
Organisms that are constantly exposed to dangers, which can kill them in mass, have evolved to reproduce in high numbers so that enough of a species will survive and continue the species. Survival of the fittest and natural selection is a common practice among organisms that reproduce fast and in high numbers.
