How would you describe human population growth for the past 200 years. When determining Earth’s carrying capacity for humans, why is it not enough to just consider human numbers? What will happen if there is a rapid growth in human population? What solutions do you have in mind to limit the human population growth?
Question 3: I introduced 2 species of super-mutant ant species into my terrarium. These are the only species competing for resources. Species 1's common name is the TEN-headed ZINGer ant and they have a population size of N1 and a carrying capacity of K1. The blue line shows the isocline for species 1. Species 2's common name is the Evil Ant. The population size of species 2 is N2 and the carrying capacity is K2. The green line shows the isocline for species 2 The red dot is the present combination of N1 and N2. Part a) Given the data how will the population of both species (N1 and N2) change- pick the correct colored arrow (pink, brown, black, or red) to show the direction that the combination of N1 and N2 will change

QUESTION 5 You are trying to decide on a conservation plan for a large national park. Which of the species below is likely to be the biggest conservation concern and important to consider first? a. A species that produces very large numbers of offspring each year b. A species that has no commercial value c. A large predator that lives on huge territories and has only 2-3 offspring per litter d. A primary consumer that has a wide and varied diet e. A plant that is sparsely distributed in diverse habitats over a large geographic area
A continuously growing population of alligators has a population size of 1,000 and an intrinsic rate of increase of r= 0.05 per year. Assuming that this rate of increase remains the same, about how long should it take for the population to reach 4000?

Each August, dolphins near the coast of the Atlantic ocean. In a hypothetical situation, an initial population of 900 dolphins gives birth to 390 tiny babies, and during the next 12 months, 60 dolphins die. Assuming the dolphin population grows geometrically, what will the dolphin population be in 12 years?
Scenario part 2 Imagine you, a researcher, return to this same population after 30 years and you see blue, green, yellow, and orange frogs. Questions part 2 name 1 key agent of microevolution that could be responsible for the appearance of orange frogs in this population. (just 1) name 1 key agent of microevolution that could NOT be responsible for the appearance of orange frogs in this population (just 1)

Question 25 options: Species diversity tends to increase with evapostranspiration Species diversity tends to increase with when parasitism is low Species diversity tends to increase with island area Species diversity tends to be higher when disturbance frequency is low Species diversity tends to increase with decreasing latitude
Explain why you agree or disagree with the followingpropositions:a. Stabilizing population is not desirable because, without more consumers, economic growth would stop.b. The world will never run out of resources becausewe can use technology to find substitutes and tohelp us reduce resource waste.c. We can shrink our ecological footprints while creating beneficial environmental impacts.
