Students have asked these similar questions
At the beginning of an experiment, there are 100 bacteria. If the bacteria follow an exponential growth pattern with a rate k = 0.002, what will the population be after 5 hours? how long will it take for the population to double?
You are studying a woodland ecosystem with four trophic levels. For simplicity, let's
that
say
the system only consists of chipmunks which eat plants, snakes which eat the chipmunks,
and hawks which eat the snakes. The plants produce 5,550,000 kcal of energy, the
chipmunks have 780,000 kcal of energy available, and the snakes have 48,000 kcal of energy
available.
If each hawk needs 200 kcal of energy on average, how many hawks can this ecosystem
support? Use the 10% rule.
A population grows exponentially at about 2%
per year. Assume that the population starts with
15 individuals. How many individuals will it have
after 10 years? After 20 years? How long will it
take for the population to double?

- Larger species of sauropods reached as tall as 19-feet. Elephants are the largest land animals existing today. If elephants could weigh as heavy as 15,400 lbs. and could reach a height of 13-feet, how heavy could sauropods have weighed?arrow_forwardA Hippogriff is a magical beast that had tail of a horse. It is very similar to another magical creature, the Griffin, with the horse rear replacing the lion rear. A slightly different breed of Hippogriffs, living in the Rathlin Island—the northernmost point in Northern Ireland, was known to have a growth rate of 0.2 individuals per individual—year. From an initial population of N0, it grew to 35 individuals after 5 years. After 17 more years, the total population of hippogriffs in Rathlin Island rose to 1588 individuals. Solve for the carrying capacity of Rathlin Island and the initial population of the said specie.arrow_forwardUse the hybrid selection model, OY = ky(1 - y)(a - by), to find the percent of the population that has the given characteristic. dt A research team is studying a population of snails to determine how quickly characteristic B will pass from one generation to the next.

Before Carl Woese, all cellular life forms were classified into five kingdoms: Monera, Fungi, Plants, Animals, and Protists. Using rRNA genes for phylogenetic reconstruction, Carl Woese uncovered a previously unrecognized group that was thought to be bacteria. Afterward, all cellular life forms were classified into three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya. It is found that the relationship among Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya changes, depending on which gene was used for phylogenetic reconstruction.

That means a single bat can eat approximately 1.75 X 108 mosquitoes in its life. Is the Bat Man correct? Show all conversions and explain in complete sentences.arrow_forwardSmall birds like that in (Figure 1) can migrate over long distances without feeding, storing energy mostly as fat rather than carbohydrate. Fat is a good form of energy storage because it provides the most energy per unit mass: 1.00 grams of fat provides about 9.40 (food) Calories, compared to 4.20 (food) Calories per 1.00 grams of carbohydrate. Remember that Calories associated with food, which are always capitalized, are not exactly the same as calories used in physics or chemistry, even though they have the same name. More specifically, one food Calorie is equal to 1000 calories of mechanical work or 4184 joules. Therefore, in this problem use the conversion factor 1 Cal = 4184 J. Figure 1 of 1 Part A Consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average rate of 3.70 W (this rate represents the power consumption of the bird). Assume that the bird consumes 4.00 g of fat to fly over a distance do without stopping for…arrow_forward
