Question
Please use your own words to answer! If each female of a fish species produces millions of eggs per year, what would be the most likely survivorship curve - type I, II or III? Explain. In 2014, The United States had a population of 319 million people. If there were 16 births and 10 deaths per 1,000 people, what was the country's net population growth that year (ignoring immigration and emigration)? If an insect that eats plant seeds containing 150 J of energy uses 60 J of that energy for respiration and excretes 30 J in its feces, what is the insect's net secondary production? What is its production efficiency? Tobacco leaves contain nicotine, a poisonous compound that is energetically expensive for the plant to make. What advantage might the plant gain by using some of its resources to produce nicotine?Explanation / Answer
Answer= A female fish produces a millions of eggs per year the most likely survivorship curve would be
TYPE III i.e. highly concave curve
It is characteristic of those species where mortality rate is high during the young stages
The fish shows this type of curve Their mortality is extremely high during free swimming larval stages
This type of ccurve is characteristic of species that produces a large number of offspring
