Big Idea 4: Term 20

R-strategist: Organisms that use the r-reproductive strategy
produce many young, but none of the progeny receives much
parental investment. Chances are that at least a few fortunate
offspring will survive until adulthood, and organisms like this
katydid (family is Tettigoniidae and looks like green splotch
near bottom) rely on these odds.
