What is the difference between r selected and K selected species populations?

Those are reproductive strategies that identify certain species. R-selected are those that reproduce rapidly and produce a lot of progeny; bacteria are an example. K-selected are those that reproduce very slowly and are slow to mature; humans are a k-selected species. Population density is the number of organisms per unit area. Some organisms don' t like to be crowded, so the density can affect the population size. Also, some limiting factors are density-dependent, like food or living space.

What is the difference between organisms of the same species?
he he
Resource partitioning would be most likely to occur between?
sympatric populations of species with similar ecological niches
What is the difference between flower genus and species?
A genus is the next higher taxon up from species. It is a group of closely related species.
Does an individual a population or a species evolve?
Populations evolve.
What is the primary difference between biomes W and X?
mean number if species
What is the difference between r selected and k selected species?
R- Selected species have high population densities while k-selected species have lower population densities
Describe how a population differs from a species?
There is one big difference between a population and a species. Populations do not necessarily have to refer to living things whereas species does.
What is the difference between community?
COMMUNITY: the populations of different species that interact in some way are called a community. POPULATION: all of the individuals of one species that live in the same area at that same time make up a population.
Difference between native and non native species?
The difference between native and non-native species is that native species are from that area and non-native species are not from that area.
When most populations of a wide ranging amphibian species are lost and the few remaining populations are widely separated you expect to see that?
Genetic diversity decreases, which can lead to reduced adaptability and resilience to environmental changes, higher risk of inbreeding and genetic disorders, and potentially increased vulnerability to diseases and other threats. Additionally, the chances of recolonization and gene flow between populations are diminished, further limiting the species' ability to recover.

What is ecological competition?
The simultaneous demand between two or more species-populations for a resource that is not abundant enough to support all of them at the sizes they would attain in the absence of the other species-populations.
What is the difference between haploid species and diploid species?
winter
Collection of all populations of species in an area?
The collection of all populations of species in an area is the community.
The accumulation of differences between species or populations is called?
divergence / divergent evolution
