Question

complete the table to describe the life history characteristics of k - and r - selected species. characteristic k - selected species r - selected species level of parental care lifespan most closely associated population growth model

Explanation:

K - selected species invest more in fewer offspring, thus have high parental care, long lifespan, and follow logistic population - growth model. r - selected species produce many offspring with little parental care, short lifespan, and follow exponential population - growth model.

Answer:

Characteristic	K - selected species	r - selected species
lifespan	Long	Short
most closely associated population growth model	Logistic	Exponential
