R- Selected species have high population densities while k-selected species have lower population densities
Acinonyx jubatus is the species of the cheetah.
Acinonyx jubatus is the species of cheetah.
r-strategists are species that can grow and reproduce fast to increase their population. k-strategists are species that grow and reproduce more slower than the r-strategists do.
K strategists are species that have small populations and have a stable environment. R strategists are species that have large populations that are determined by their maximum reproductive capacity.
Yes, Acinonyx jubatus is the species of the cheetah.
There is only one extant species of cheetah - Acinonyx jubatus. However, there are several subspecies.
Snakes display both r and K traits. They are much longer lived, produce a moderate number of eggs (some species far fewer than others). The issue with the r/K equation is that there are too many species that have the characteristics of both the r and K types which renders the information either obvious...like humans being a definite K to some frogs that are definitely r...or with some calculated value that is essentially too general for use.
