Respuesta :

Sea turtles lay hundreds of eggs with the hope that a few of their offspring will survive to adulthood. This is an example of a Type III survivorship curve.

What is Type III survivorship curve?

  • Early in life, Type III or concave curves have the highest mortality (lowest age-specific survival), but those who make it through this bottleneck experience comparatively low death rates (high survival probability).
  • This kind of curve is typical of organisms with high reproductive rates (see r/K selection theory).
  • This covers the majority of marine invertebrates. A graph indicating the percentage of people in a certain species or group who survive to each age is called a survivorship curve (e.g. males or females).
  • Based on a life table, survival curves can be created for a given cohort (a collection of people who are about the same age).
