Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

K selection favors iteroparity (repeated reproduction) over semelparity (one-time reproduction) because it allows for greater investment in fewer offspring. Small body size, rapid development, and early reproduction are favored by r selection, which emphasizes producing as many offspring as possible without much parental care or investment. The variable "r_max" is not a characteristic favored by either K or r selection; it is unclear what this variable represents.
