C. low rates of offspring survival

There are two basic types of reproduction: Semelparity and Iteroparity.

Semelparous organisms reproduce usually once or twice in their lifetime (Elephants) and put a lot of energy and care into raising their young. Answer B fits this model.

Iteroparous organisms reproduce as often as possible, with as much offspring as possible (Salmon, mice). If a species can produce a lot of offspring, then it doesn't really matter if some don't live to adulthood because there are some that will. Low rates of survival fits this model, so your answer is C.

A1; That makes me question if there is multiple gods, or if there is a collection of souls called and operates as God. I don't think anyone created him unless he had parents and it's possible that there are alternate forms of matter that aren't atoms and that everything spiritual is made up of that stuff. It also brings in to question how did the universe(s) exist? A2; I think it might be harder for God to make large scale changes and I don't know why she/he'd not help in direct ways, but free will is like a must and instincts help drive people and I don't know. He/she probably doesn't force us because he wants us to experience on our own unless we need help, then god will give us help in indirect ways. I'm not completely sure of stuff, but for some reason I can communicate with a handful of spirits (everyone thinks it's in my head) and I choose vegetarianism because right now animals are being mistreated and used to be eaten while having not much to do while getting industrialized, and I don't think god created the earth, just the ability perhaps for life to be on it because the whole carnivore thing is strange in my opinion, some need to eat meat to live, so what should be fed to it? more carnivores? Then again we were probably ceated to die in this life after learning with free will, and to live forever in the afterlife. But then why are those spirits the way they are? Why wouldn't they be somewhere else? I'm not sure, so in a way I'm agnostic.

What is "big-bang" reproduction?! Sounds more like a Penthouse Forum kind of thing than a Biology kind of thing.
