Question
Chapter 30.3, Problem 2CYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The description of what survivorship curves can tell us about a species reproductive strategy.
Given:
Survivorship curves are one of the tools used by population ecologists.
Introduction:
A graph which is plotted with the number of individuals existing at each age interval against time is the survivorship curves. There are three types of survivorship curves named as type I, II and III. The individuals of species with different reproductive strategies be likely to encompass difference in life expectancy or expected lengths of life.
