Paul Andersen explains the differences between an r and a K selected species. He starts with a brief description of population growth noting the importance of; r or growth rate, N or number of individuals in the population, and K the carrying capacity. He describes three different survivorship curves found in organisms. He lists the characteristics of r-selected species like bacteria and K-selected species like humans.

Great vid!
"All of you are going to die" 🥲 his so real
Great video, tysm.
Could you please enlighten me on the name for such diverse reproductive strategies within the same species? For instance, some Homo sapiens choose to have one or two children, investing significant resources in each, while others opt for multiple offspring with different partners, providing minimal resources per offspring. Would both scenarios be considered examples of K-R selection strategy, despite similar lifespans in both instances? Thank you. Kal.
Irem is R Selected.
i wish humans could reproduce the same way bacteria do sometimes and use sex for nonreproductive purposes.
Does this apply within human populations as well?
A very well-taught lesson on a very flawed concept that is still way too persistent in textbooks. Ecologists have moved away from this framework long ago, like in the 80's. It would be great if you ended the lesson by acknowledging the shortcomings of the r/k paradigm.
cool beans #gordonramsey #hermitsaregone #fishimmeninent #yeahboi
u made my lifeee easssyy!!
I wouldn’t say all Humans are type K. If you really think about it Conservatives are K types, and Liberals are R types.
I have never watched a more explained video in my life ..
Thank you, blonde Cillian Murphy in glasses with a soothing voice!

Thank you ..it was really clear.
this guys a nigga
Just want to say thank you
Yea, Mr. Anderson was right. If you could answer the question at the beginning you got the idea and most of it. Skip to 6:03 to learn something you didn't probably know.
I'm at my carrying capacity for Term One, bring on the holidays
Who else’s got sent here from a teacher? 😂✋🏾
