type III
Humans exhibit survivorship curve similar to that of K-selected species, which invest heavily in fewer offspring with higher parental care, resulting in a longer lifespan. Furthermore, humans also display characteristics of Type I survivorship curve, where most individuals survive to old age due to the high level of parental investment and social support.
Many fish species and other species that have many offspring at once exhibit type the III survivorship curve, because most die early in life. Few live to old age, but most that survive their youth will live a long life. The organisms that exhibit this type of survivorship curve are typically r strategists, so they provide little to no parental care for their offspring, which makes it harder for them to survive, especially in the unusually unstable environments in which they may live.
A histogram or a bell curve would be suitable for representing a polygenic trait, as these traits are influenced by multiple genes and exhibit a continuous range of phenotypic values in a population.
A light curve is a graph showing the brightness of an astronomical object over time. In the case of novae or supernovae, their light curves exhibit a rapid increase in brightness followed by a gradual decrease. By analyzing the shape and characteristics of the light curve, astronomers can determine the type and nature of the astronomical event, helping to identify whether it is a nova or a supernova.
Organisms that exhibit an S-shaped growth curve typically experience lag, exponential growth, and plateau phases. For example, bacteria, yeast, and many other microorganisms follow this type of growth pattern when they are grown in a controlled environment with limited resources. The S-shaped curve represents the logistic growth model, where the population growth rate slows down as it approaches the carrying capacity of the environment.
Seagulls and other birds
Type 1 = high survivorship when young, and low at old age
Type 1
Type I
A type 2 survivorship curve implies a roughly constant mortality rate across all age groups of the species.
Type II
type 1 is what it seems like but its type 2
Humans exhibit survivorship curve similar to that of K-selected species, which invest heavily in fewer offspring with higher parental care, resulting in a longer lifespan. Furthermore, humans also display characteristics of Type I survivorship curve, where most individuals survive to old age due to the high level of parental investment and social support.
Chimpanzees are Type I organisms, and have cucarachas in thier pants.
a Type III curve -The greatest mortality is experienced early on in life, with relatively low rates of death for those surviving this bottleneck. This type of curve is characteristic of species that produce a large number of offspring
Opportunistic life history species are typically associated with a Type III survivorship curve, characterized by high mortality rates early in life and high reproductive output. This strategy favors producing a large number of offspring with minimal parental care to take advantage of unpredictable and unstable environments.
