Example Of R And K-Strategist

R- and k- strategists are reproductive strategies. Reproductive strategies are “The interplay of environmental resistance and biotic potential” (Wright, 77). The difference between the r- and k- strategies is the characteristics of each. The r- strategies tend to have a lot of children at a young age, leaving their children with little or no parental care, the population stability wildly fluctuates. R- strategist tend to be smaller in size and, a short life span and rapid movement. Examples of r-strategist are bees, ants, oysters, dandelions, flies, etc. Characteristics of the k- strategies are they are larger in size, they have longer life spans, they have children at an older age, when they have children they don’t have a lot, they stay around …show more content…
Biome is a group of ecosystems related by similar types of vegetation with similar climatic conditions. For example: desert, tropical rain forests, artic tundra, etc. Biotic are living things in an ecosystem. For example humans, animal, bacteria and fungi. Abiotic are the none living parts of the ecosystems. For example: temperature, water, gases, soil and the sun. Here are a few examples of biotic and abiotic factors in which I like. Plants and water, without water and sunlight plants would not be able to grow. Another example would be turtles and soil. When the temperature gets too hot, turtles hide in the soil to stay cool. Without the soil, most turtles would die. Lastly, all biotic factors and water. Without water all biotic factors would become dehydrated and eventually …show more content…

There are a few cultural bases. For example, I feel our attention as a culture is on material things. Its all about being with the new trends and showing off your life style. I know that doing crazy things to fit in has always been an issue but now that social media has taken over, it seems like the desire to fit in has multiplied to a scare rate. With this issue two things have happened. More people do things that effects our planet negatively. For example, makeup. Being a makeup artist or “beating your face” is so popular these days. Almost every woman does it but its destroying our planet. Over 3 million tons of personal care is dumper into the waterways every year. Also with all of our attention on materialistic things and trying to be apart of the newest tread to show it off, we aren’t paying attention to the environmental
