Everything about Fecundity totally explained
Fecundity, derived from the word, generally refers to the ability to
reproduce. In
biology and
demography, fecundity is the potential reproductive capacity of an
organism or
population, measured by the number of
gametes (eggs), seed set or asexual propagules. Fecundity is under both
genetic and environmental control, and is the major measure of
fitness.
Fecundation is another term for
fertilisation.
Fecundity is important and well studied in the field of
population ecology. Fecundity can increase or decrease in a population according to current conditions and certain
regulating factors. For instance, in times of hardship for a population such as a
lack of food, juvenile and eventually adult fecundity has been shown to decrease.
Fecundity has also been shown to increase in
ungulates with relation to warmer weather.
In the
philosophy of science, fecundity refers to the ability of a
scientific theory to open new lines of theoretical inquiry.
