3. What is the main factor limiting population growth in K-strategists?

• A. Predation
• B. Availability of resources
• C. Competition
• D. Disease

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: K-strategists are species that have a low reproductive rate and invest more resources in raising fewer offspring. These species typically inhabit stable environments where resources are limited. The main factor limiting population growth in K-strategists is the availability of resources such as food, shelter, and space. When resources are scarce, K-strategists may struggle to find enough resources to support their population size, leading to decreased reproductive success and population growth. Predation (option A), competition (option C), and disease (option D) can also impact population growth, but the primary limiting factor for K-strategists is the availability of resources.

4. What is the term for a group of organisms with the same genetic makeup?

• A. Population
• B. Clone
• C. Genotype
• D. Species

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - A population (option A) refers to a group of individuals of the same species living in the same area. - Genotype (option C) refers to the genetic makeup of an individual organism. - Species (option D) refers to a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring. In this context, a clone (option B) is a group of organisms that are genetically identical because they are derived from a single ancestor. This term specifically refers to organisms with the same genetic makeup, making it the most appropriate choice for the question.
