An instinct of an organisms to behave a certain way High fecundity, small body size, unstable environment, dependant offspring, short life cycle, early maturity - small, reproduce fast, plants, bacteria, insects A species on which other species in an ecosystem largely depend, such that if it were removed the ecosystem would change drastically. The "real" reason something occurred. An event which is closest to, or immediately responsible for causing, some observed result. A group of populations that are separated by space but consist of the same species. These separated populations interact as individual members.
