Ecologists use survivorship curves to visualize how the number of individuals in a population drops off with time. By plotting the
number of survivors per 1,000 individuals on a log scale versus time, three basic patterns emerge, seen here in the graph. Most
individuals in this population produce many thousands of offspring, most of whom die right away. Relatively little effort or
parental care is invested in each individual. Once this initial period is over, survivorship is relatively constant.
