R-strategist


Organisms that grow exponentially in order to keep the population growing. Some characteristics of R-strategists are that they develop rapidly, high mobility, and have high reproduction rates compared to K-strategist organisms. Some examples of R-strategist organisms are mice, rabbits, mosquitos, ants, fish, krill, weeds, and bacteria. This picture shows minnows which are R-strategist.
