I'm not quite sure what you mean by your question.
However, an r-species animal (short life span; high reproduction rate; adapts much more readily to environment change due to the increased rate of evolution) produces many offspring quickly.

Why is there great variations in the offspring produced through sexual reproduction but little or no variations in the offspring produced through asexual reproduction?
In asexual reproduction there is no independent orientation of chromosomes, not crossing over and no random fertilization. Cloning the exact genetic material from organism to progeny is all asexual reproduction is. So, very little chance of anything but mutation, copying errors, are going to happen in asexual reproduction.
What is the significance of the nucleus in determining the characteristics of the offspring?
Very,the nucleus the DNA
What chemical dissolves very quickly in water that nobody would see it being mixed?
Many chemicals can dissolve quickly in the water some are like Salt, Sugar and etc
What might change an ecosystem very quickly?
A change in climate or natural disaster might change an ecosystem very quickly.
What is a reproductive strategy in biology?
the way that a species creates offspring Reproductive strategies are theories associated with the natural selection of factors associated with the number of young produced ... or parental care of offspring. Books have been written on this topic. The simple answer is best described by a few examples. There are basically 2 extremes with this theory ... one is " K selection," which refers to a strategy of producing few offspring, but providing high levels of parental care to ensure survival of young and greatly increase the probablilty that they will reproduce. Good examples include man, primates, and elephants ... produce few offspring but have prolonged periods of parental care. The other exteme is "r selection," which refers to a strategy of producing high numbers of offspring but very little parental care. The idea here is that by producing a huge number of offspring survival of the species will be enhanced even with a small percentage of survivors ... i.e., if a large number is produced, even with a small percentage of survival the number of survivors is substantial. Good examples include many species of insects and some fish. Carp, for example lay over a million eggs and abandon the egg masses. Even if only one tenth of one percent survive, that one carp produced 1,000 offspring that are potential breeders (if they survive to reproductive age). Most organisms have a reproductive strategy that is somewhere between these 2 extremes ... but most lean toward one or the other.THE METHOD AN ORGANISM USES TO PRODUCE OFFSPRING!!! - Apex :3
Can you breed cats with dogs?
Technically, yes, it has been done, but the offspring die very quickly and it has never been done without the offspring suffering infant mortality.
When were amplified cordless phones first produced?
The amplified cordless phones were first produced in March of 2011. With their many options and ease of use, they became popular very quickly and are now used by many people.
How many earthworms are produced from 1 cocoon?
The number varies depending on the species and the conditions at the time of gestation. A very common species, eisenia fetida, usually has around 4 offspring per cocoon.
Where is Ultraman Mebius produced?
Ultraman Mebius was produced in Japan and was a very popular series. They began being aired on Saturday mornings, but quickly moved to Saturday evenings.
How many offspring does a koala usually have?
Koalas produce a single offspring, once a year. On very rare occasions, they may produce twins.
How many offspring does a female koala have at once?
A female koala tends to have just a single offspring. Twins have been recorded, but they are very rare.
Why do lions have fewer offspring then fish?
Yes they have a lot of fewer offspring. Fish have many many many many babies at a time. They can have 20 or 30 or maybe more at a time. It is very weird but interesting
How are inbreeding and hybridization the same?
Inbreeding is the breeding of closely related individuals of a species generally to produce more uniform offspring. Hybridization is the breeding of different varieties (breeds) or even different species to increase variation/ vigor in the genetic population. An example of variety hybridization would Labradoodles (labrador X poodle). An example of species hybridization would be (wolf X coyote). Many offspring produced from species hybridization are sterile... depending on the chromosome number compatibility and other factors.
How many offspring do koalas produce and how often?
Koalas produce a single offspring, once a year. On very rare occasions, they may produce twins.
What role does the status of women play in determining population growth rates?
The number in females is very important, since they ultimately determine the number of offspring produced in the population.
Will DMT show up in a UA?
no. dmt is metabolized very quickly, and drug tests don't look for it, as it is produced by the human body.
What are some examples of lamarck's theory?
One very famous example is that giraffes stretched their necks all their lives to reach leaves that are very high on trees, and when they produced offspring, they passed the long necks down to them.
