In some species of fish, females disperse some of their eggs widely and lay other eggs in a nest. Only the latter receive parental care. Explain the trade-offs in reproduction that this behavior illustrates. Endangered organisms usually have which life history strategy? Discuss why their life history strategy may contribute to their being endangered. Most pests have which life history strategy? Discuss why their life history strategy contributes to their success as pests. As an ecologist that manages a wildlife preserve, you want to increase the preserve’s carrying capacity for a particular endangered species. Discuss how you might go about accomplishing this plan. Discuss how humans differ from other species in their ability to a carrying “choose” capacity for their environment. Ethology studies four questions that can be and a behavior grouped into “how” “why” occurs.
