Chapter 37, Problem 7WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether a population with equilibrium life history having
Concept introduction:
Population having equilibrium life history represents logical growth patterns. They have fewer and large offspring. Equilibrium life history is density-dependent; their offspring are provided with parental care and survival rate of offspring is also high.
