Terminal investment hypothesis

The terminal investment hypothesis is the idea in life history theory that as an organism's residual reproductive value decreases, its reproductive effort will increase. Thus, as an organism's prospects for survival decreases, it will invest more in reproduction. This hypothesis is generally supported in animals, although results contrary to it do exist.
