Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

r-strategist species are characterized by high per capita birth rates, production of large numbers of offspring, and often semelparous reproduction (reproducing once before death). They typically do not provide parental care, as their reproductive strategy focuses on producing as many offspring as possible rather than investing in the survival of a few.
