Model predictions for the population and cohort dynamics resulting from a newborn single mussel living in constant environmental conditions (12 °C and 0.5 mg C/l) in three
different mortality scenarios: (1) only starvation, (2) starvation and aging and (3) starvation and constant background of 0.005 d−1. (a) and (b) represent total number of individuals
in the population; (c) represents the number of cohorts; (d), (e), and (f) represent length, structure, and maturity level of the first cohort, respectively
