Drag each tile to the correct location.

Match each trait that an organism displays to a reproductive strategy.

The average clutch size of the
American green tree frog is
400 eggs.
Orangutan mothers care for
their young for 7 to 8 years.

Rhinoceroses weigh from 800
kilograms to more than 2,000
kilograms and have few offspring.

The oriental fruit fly reaches
sexual maturity in 25 to 35 days
and has a high rate of predation.

Great white sharks have a
gestation period of 10 to
12 months.

Answer:

1st. R-selected, 2nd. K-selected, 3rd. K-selected, 4th. R-selected, 5th. K-selected.

Step-by-step explanation:

The K-selected species shows a large size of the body, gradual development, and lengthier life span. They generate very little offspring during their whole life and offer post-natal care. On the other hand, the R-selected species exhibit small size of the body and show brisk development. They exhibit brief life span and generate huge number of offspring.

Thus, of the mentioned options, the generation of the huge number of eggs by American green tree frog, the rapid reproduction and brief life span in fruit fly makes them R-selected species. While the lengthier gestation period, post-natal care, and the generation of new offspring make the remaining the K-selected species.
