An instinct of an organisms to behave a certain way Actual reproductive rate of organism or population, measured by the number of gametes (eggs), seed set, or asexual reproductive structures A group of populations that are separated by space but consist of the same species. These separated populations interact as individual members. A species on which other species in an ecosystem largely depend, such that if it were removed the ecosystem would change drastically. Stable environment, large body size, high parental care, mammals, humans High fecundity, small body size, unstable environment, dependant offspring, short life cycle, early maturity - small, reproduce fast, plants, bacteria, insects Acquisition of knowledge that leads an organism to act a certain way. The "real" reason something occurred.
