Concept Check

• Each female of a particular fish species produces millions of eggs per year. What is the likely survivorship pattern? Explain.

Semelparity or Iteroparity

Page 17: Honors Biology: Populations

Concept Check

• Consider two rivers. One is spring fed and is constant in water volume and temperature year-round; the other drains a desert landscape and floods and dries out as unpredictable intervals. Which is more likely to support many species of iteroparous animals? Why?

Page 18: Honors Biology: Populations

Evolution and Life History Diversity

• Life histories are very diverse• Species that exhibit semelparity, or big-bang

reproduction, reproduce once and die• Species that exhibit iteroparity, or repeated

reproduction, produce offspring repeatedly• Highly variable or unpredictable environments likely favor

big-bang reproduction, while dependable environments may favor repeated reproduction

Concept Check

• Where is exponential growth by a plant population more likely – one a newly formed volcanic island or in a mature, undisturbed rain forest? Why?
