Concept explainers

Population Growth

R and K Selection

R and K selection are concepts in ecology used to describe traits in the fluctuation of a population or population dynamics. For example, they describe the life-association traits between parent and offspring, such as quantity or number of young ones born at a time, quality of parental care, the age to maturity, and reproductive effort.

Imagine that you are a conservation biologist responsible for the well-being of a bufello herd consistingof 100 mature males and 100 mature females. In this herd, there is no appreciable mutation, there isno migration in or out, and there is no selection. At the Fuzzy gene locus, there are two alleles, G and E.Homozygous G individuals have fuzzy fur, homozygous E individuals have rough fur, and heterozygoteshave shaggy fur. Suppose you survey the herd and find that there are 44 fuzzy individuals, 72 shaggyindividuals, and 84 rough individuals.a)What is the size of the population?b)Do the alleles have a simple dominance relationship? Describe.c)What are the frequencies of the two alleles?d)Is the population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?If not, how do you know, and what might be the cause?
