Analyze the following statements and determine if the population being described is an r- or k-strategist. * r-strategist k-strategist Hermit crabs mate quickly and frequently over dry land but larvae float in the pelagic zone of the ocean for about a month during which a large number of them are eaten by predators. A lizard produces a few large eggs in the second year then repeats the reproductive act annually for several years. Desert wildflowers germinate, grow, produce many seeds, and then die, all in a span of one month after spring rains.
