14
Q

A

species that occupy the same niches but not in the same region so they don’t have to compete

17
Q

succession

A

the sequence of biotic changes that regenerate a caged community or create a community in a previously uninhabited area

18
Q

primary succession

A

est. and development of an area that was previously uninhabited
not even soil
just barren rock

19
Q

pioneer species

A

the first species to inhabit in succession

20
Q

secondary succession

A

reestablishment of a damaged area where soil was left intact

21
Q

exponential growth

A

pop increase rapidly

with abundant resources

22
Q

logistic growth

A

pop increase slowly once carrying capacity is reached

limited resouces

23
Q

survivorship curves

A

show how many organisms are still alive as the pop ages

24
Q

type 1 survuvorship surve

A

late loss curve
large animsld with parental care

live to old age
exponenetial increase

25
type 2 survivorship curve
constant loss smaller animals in eny point of their life, they can die linear decrease
26
type 3 survivorship curve
early loss insects and fish and amphibians havve a lot of babies that don't survive. but if they do, they live for longer.
27
r reproductive strategy
``` small animals no parental care lots of kids mature early short life reproduce once survivorship curve 3 ```
28
K reproductive strategy
``` larger animals not a lot of offspring but with parent care late mature long life expectancy reproduces more than once in life time survivorship curve 1+2 ```
29
4 characteristics of pop groeth
immigration emigration death rate birth rate
30
pop crash
sudden death of a lot of organisms in a pop
31
Competitive exclusion
No 2 species can occupy the same niche at the same time
