At which level of the Ecological Model is the following quote focused upon?
"I started to put on weight by the time I was seven. There was no obesity in the family and I played
out of doors getting plenty of exercise. I was encouraged not to overeat, though surrounded by
energetic brothers I liked to compete with them in everything, including meal sizes. I weighed nine
stone [126 pounds] when I was nine and was quite proud to be the heaviest girl in the class, but
ashamed when I was 13 stone [182 pounds] at 13. I've had weight/eating problems ever since. "

- Q6.8. Imagine that after the birds have been living in the city for many years a second big flock of birds arrives. How will the bird population size change in the 10 to 20 years after the extra birds arrive? Choose the graph that best represents how the city's bird population should change over time. (Note: there are still no predators of these birds in the city.) Pop. Size . Pop. Size Time Time Submit Answer saved to SimuText server. Pop. Size Pop. Size Time Timearrow_forward. Simulations 4-6 had lower density of birds (more spacing), how did this influence their ability to escape predation? With more spacing, which number of Junco’s was most advantageous (4, 8, and 16)? Ecologically explain this result. If this flock of birds occurred in an area with low food availability what flock density would you predict? Explain how food availability impacts flock size/competition. Was there a relationship between prop. Vigilance (proportion of birds looking up right before Hawk attack) and the rate at which they escaped predation? Was there a relationship between Mean vigilance (average number of birds looking up each tick) and the rate at which the Junco’s the escaped predation? Was there a relationship between Mean vigilance and the number of birds in the flock?arrow_forwardOBSERVATIONS • Sea otters feed significantly on sea urchins, often keeping urchin abundance 'in check'. • Sea urchins feed heavily on kelp, decimating kelp forests when urchin abundance is high. • Kelp forests protect the shoreline from coastal erosion by buffering wave action. • Orcas have been observed feeding on sea otters in the kelp forests of western Alaska.

- Q10. An ecologist wants to know if diversity in a forest system is likely to decrease when an invasive species is introduced. This invasive species is a fast-growing annual plant that grows on oak trees and kills them. The invasive species can only survive on living oak trees. The ecologist has the original model from this lab and another version of the model which includes transitions that involve the invasive species. To answer the research question, the ecologist should compare species diversity generated by the original model to diversity generated by which model described below? A model in which oak has a positive transition rate to the invasive and the invasive has a positive transition to grass. A model in which oak has a positive transition rate to the invasive and the invasive has a positive transition to oak. A model in which the invasive has a positive transition rate to oak and oak has a positive transition to grass.arrow_forwardBiodiversity Practice: Garden My Neighbor's Garden My Garden 8 rabbits 5 snails 1 worm 4 rabbits 2 snails 1 worm 2 sparrows Which garden has more relative abundance?

A group of golden lion tamarins were released into their natural habitat but most did not survive. The researchers found most were very underweight, presumably due to a lack of food availability.

- Suppose that blue sheep are the most important prey of snow leopard, and that the predator‒prey interaction follows Lotka‒Volterra dynamics. The mortality rate of snow leopard in the absence of blue sheep is 0.1 per week, and the intrinsic growth rate of blue sheep in the absence of snow leopard predation is 0.2 per week. Snow leopard capture efficiency is 0.002, and the efficiency at which blue sheep biomass is converted into snow leopard biomass is 0.2. If there are initially 30 snow leopards and 400 blue sheep, the overall rate of change in the blue sheep population will be a gain of ____ per week.arrow_forwardhttps://www.biointeractive.org/classroom-resources/exploring-trophic-cascades create a case study based on additional research into other examples of trophic cascades. describe and illustrate how changes in an organismal population can have unintended effects on trophic levels or ecosystems.
