Which of the following are true for a population that is increasing according to the exponential growth equation? Choose all that are true. per capita birth rate is always greater than per capita death rate O r is constant O ris greatest when the population is greatest the population would continue to grow forever the population grows as if resources are never limiting growth doubling time is constant
identify and describe this type of population growth pattern. I put fluctuation growth pattern as it matched up with what i have previously learned but just wanted to double check. i know there is exponential growth, logistic growth, fluctuations and cycles when it comes to population dynamics
The per capita birth (b) and death (d) rates are measured for two populations across a range of population sizes in the attached figure. The equation for exponential growth rate is dN/dt=rN where the per capita growth rate is r=(b-d). The equation for logistic population growth rate is dN/dt=rN(1-N/K). With logistic growth, r varies as a function of the population size with density-dependent birth and/or death rates. See attached image If the death rate decreased, what would happen to the population trajectory for population A? a) increase faster b) increase slower c) decrease faster d) decrease slower
A few plant-eating salamanders manage to float on a log to a large island in the Pacific that did not have any other salamander species previously. The salamanders find the island has abundant plants for food and no predators. On average, a salamander has four offspring per year and lives for one year. Refer to the equation for the logistic growth model if you were modeling salamnder population growth with this logistic growth equation, during the first few years, a) N<K b) N=K c) N>K d) there is no relationship between N and K
Which of the following statements about logistic growth is not correct? A population growing logistically has reached the carrying capacity of the environment in which it lives. A logistically growing population is represented by an S-shaped curve. When a population is growing logistically, it is limited by factors such as food supply and water. In a logistically growing population, the birth rate is much greater than the death rate.
When does the growth rate of a population following the logistic model equal zero?the logistic model is given as dN/dt = rN (1-N/K)
Which of the following growth models has a constant instantaneous population growth rate (dN/dt) regardless of population size? Select "yes" or "no" for each. logistic [ Choose ] exponential [ Choose ] cycling [ Choose ]
Examine the characteristics of logistic growth by completing each statement. Not all choices will be used. *1 S exponential four competition follicular lag two J stable equilibrium Logistic growth results in a(n) curve when graphed. This growth curve exhibits time. The phase exhibits a slow growth rate due to the small number of individuals within the population early on. Exponential growth slows as increases during the deceleration phase. As the population size grows, the growth rate will accelerate due to biotic potential during what is called the growth phase. -shaped growth distinct phases over Finally, the carrying capacity is reached during the < Prey n for resources phase where birth and death rates are equal
Population size (M) K NX K The figure depicts which type of population growth? logistic normal geometric Time (t) exponential
In the logistic model of population growth what are N and K and what happens if N>K and explain why. Ho w is the population growth affected if N=K?
The discrete logistic function (the one you can solve with your calculator) has a time lag built in = one generation. What would a greater time lag do to the outcome? increase the chances of population exceeding K decrease the chances of population exceeding K slow down population growth by decreasing r increase population growth by increasing r it would have little/no effect under all circumstances
