Okay, let's answer your question here.
00:02
Which is the following is not a characteristic of an r -selected species.
00:20
So in our selected species, let's just define that.
00:23
R -selection.
00:26
Selected species are organisms that have many offspring at one time.
00:37
So this could be many insects like bees and ants, bacteria.
00:47
Sometimes even rabbits qualify for this.
00:50
So you have lots of babies at one time.
00:53
You're not devoting a lot of energy to each one.
00:56
You just kind of put out an organism, put out a bunch of offspring at once and hope for the best.
01:04
There's not any care typically that goes in.
01:09
Even rabbits who nurse their young do so for a short amount of time relative to other mammals.
01:16
So insects, you know, they'll lay eggs and they'll leave.
01:21
Sea turtles are another good example.
01:26
These are organisms that have lots of offspring at once...
