As Part of a Scientific Study, You Are Quantifying the Reproductive

As part of a scientific study, you are quantifying the reproductive success of individuals in a wildflower population in an isolated area. The total geographical range of this wildflower is only a few square kilometers, and you know from a previous ecological modeling study that this population occupies its entire ecological envelope. On average, an individual member of this species disperses its seeds an intermediate distance (about 100 meters) in a random direction via wind. You quantify reproductive success as the proportion of seeds released by a parent plant that successfully germinate. Considering only the abiotic environment, in which parts of the wildflower's geographic range would you predict average individual reproductive success to be the highest and the lowest? Explain why.
