Life History Strategy
A suite of traits that improve an individual's chances of surviving and
reproducing in a particular environment

1. Energy commited to one function is not available for others.
2. Every evolutionary ‘choice’ has costs and benefits
3. Every organism represents a compromise of a number of evolutionary ‘choices’
COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS
