Pesticides can be used to control a variety of pests, such as insects, weeds, rodents, bacteria, fungi, etc. Over time many pesticides have gradually lost their effectiveness because pests have developed resistance – a significant decrease in sensitivity to a pesticide, which reduces the field performance of these pesticides. 2. Provide a specific example of populations, species, or situation where resistance is a problem. An internet search and citation is required.

7) The term "preemptive competition" refers to _________________.   Question 7 options:     when individuals of one species inhibit individuals of another by consuming a shared resource     situations where the occupancy by one individual precludes the establishment of others     when one organism grows over another, thereby inhibiting access to some essential resource     when chemical growth inhibitors inhibit germination and establishment of other species     when nonterritorial meetings between individuals negatively affect one or both of the participant species

APPLY YOUR KNOWLEDGE Human populations are subiect to the same population control factors in the environment that mipact natural populations. For example, during the 14th century, the bubonic plague killed approximately one- third of the human population. A. Is the bubonic plague an example of a dènsity-dependent or density-independent factor? Explain. B. Two-thirds of the population survived the bubonic plague, even though many of the survivors were most likely bitten by disease-carrying fleas. In terms of evolution, explain how it was possible to be a survivor. C. Discuss two ways that humans have increased the carrying capacity of their population.

3.Brainstorm a list of factors, events, or conditions that might affect the growth of human populations in these countries. Predict the effect of each factor on the population growth rate.  4.As a group, make a list of factors or groups of factors that have the greatest impact on population growth. Justify your answers.
